anyone fallen pregnant while using contraception?

[clare076]

namely a condom???
I know definately that it did not break or fall off while DTD, but I do know that I would have been ovulating at the exact time we DTD. Now 9 days later I feel SICK It doesnt feel like a tummy bug sick, just this constant nausea for the last 2 days and lower pelvic cramps on and off. The nausea seems to settle when I have something to eat and then a while later flares up again. I also have a slight cramp in my side (which I am sure was the side I ovulated from)
How likely is it to fall pregnant using a condom without it breaking or falling off? Can that actually happen?

I believe it 'can' happen as condoms are only 97% effective if used correctly. Have you tested?

Sorry can not be more help

Like Queen said, they're not 100% affective. So yes, it can happen.

I tested this afternoon but I had not long been to the loo and at 9DPO I think it would prob be way to early. Might try again tomorrow using FMU.

Try again first wee of the morning. I got BFP at 10dpo with Nina & 'bean'.

well this morning I woke up feeling ok, so thought oh well it must have been a bug. Rolled over to get out of bed and **** nauseous really really unwell. I did another HPT with FMU and it was BFN (although I swear I could see "something" ) Today I have had the nausea all day and taighness/cramping in my pelvic area/tummy. So dont know what is going on, I have another HPT for tomorrow, if thats a negative I will just wait it out for Saturday

All the best!
