Unplanned and Planned Pregnancies

[CrimsonBlaze]

So first off, this has nothing to do with religious beliefs, societal views, or traditional values. This topic is merely for exploring an odd trend (not fact) that I have noticed in terms of women getting pregnant.

Ok, so fellow Escapists, have you noticed how some women have no problem getting pregnant when it is unplanned and yet the same women will have difficulty getting pregnant when the baby is planned?

I cannot understand that for the life of me. Women who are trying to get pregnant go to extremes to bear a child: they take hormones, have a schedule when they are most likely to ovulate, they have sex multiple times a day, etc. etc. While on the other end of the fence, women who do not want to get pregnant are somehow more potent to get pregnant.

Is this biological? Maybe a psychological reaction? Is it recklessly succeeding or planning to fail? I am honest baffled.

Again, this is not to offend anyone about their ability to get pregnant. I have just noticed that it is harder for certain women to get pregnant when they plan for a child than when they don't.

So any explanations, opinions, or thoughts would be most appreciated.

By the way, I just had a sneaking suspicion that this might come up so I'll say it now: No, I am not planning to have a child with anyone and I did not create this thread to ask for advice. I am just curious about the matter, nothing more.

Some women roll multiple natural 1's in a row. Occasionally they'll get a 20... and a baby is born.

That's how it works right?

You could not have made the miracle of birth anymore nerdy if you had tried, Fappy.

But you are wrong.

I have a question, when a woman is pregnant does she increase in size category?

Okay, I am done now >.>

Some people just can't make a baby together.
My aunt and uncle were married 10 years and trying for a baby for about 7 of those years, they simply couldn't have one together. Weird thing is, after the divorce they both moved on and had kids.

Actually a baby is born when the guy rolls a 1.

That's kinda mean but it made me laugh.
Some dudes wanna have babies.

There is so much that goes into having a baby that it seems like its just happenstance. But since humans have been having babies for centuries it has to be a bit more simple then that. Maybe its all the stuff we pump into our food and all the crap we live with every day.

Besides everyone knows that babies are born when the guy rolls a 20 and then rolls max damage.

That is the best analogy I've ever heard. It made me laugh and the best part is how painfully true it is.

OP, I've noticed that kind of trend to and am therefore relieved that I didn't knock up my high-school GF. What's weirder, OP, is that I've heard stories of people who have gone out of their way to AVOID the making of a baby and STILL getting pregnant (a friend of mine got busy with a guy who was snipped AND wearing protection and she not only got preggers but had the kid. She's a completely different person now but she's happy).

Because Sod's Law states that if you aren't trying to get someone pregnant then your sperms suddenly become equipped with jetpacks, whereas if you are trying then you'll shoot blanks. That's just how it works.
Also whatever the female equivalent of jetpack sperm is for when they're not trying to get pregnant. Ova with target signs on them?

It's true though. Baby is born with a pair of dice in its hand and everything.

Also one thing to consider, people that have unplanned pregnancies, (ARE USUALLY) 15 - 20. Which is the ripe age to have a child while people trying or planning to have one may be older and more set in life. (24-28)

in b4 generalizations.

I want to say a tractor beam that hones into the heat signature from a jetpack?
