How many times have you’ve heard or know of this happening? I know it happen to me and a few of my friends. There you are, going along, living everyday carefree as your children are getting old enough to do things on their own, they’re in school and you're enjoying their independence. You sell off the high chair and crib at the neighborhood yard sale and then bam - you’re pregnant! You think: how the hec did that happen? Here is how you got pregnant, for those who haven’t hit this time in their lives yet. Maybe - just maybe – you can prevent it. That is, if you really want to.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Step1
You had sex. You may have to sit down and really think about when you had sex, but you did. Both you and I know it takes sex to make a baby. So, it happened. If you really can’t remember when, ask your partner.
Step2
As a couple, you’ve put off the big V. Generally, women who have their tubes tied have it done right after having their last child. So, those couples that end up pregnant usually are the ones who keep forgetting to get the vasectomy appointment. Or those whose hubby doesn’t want one. (He will now.)
Step3
When you were in high school and they told you that contraception was only 99 point whatever percent reliable, they neglected to tell you that the odds can get higher the more sex you have. Therefore, by the time you’re 40-something it’s just bound to happen.
Step4
You were daydreaming about how wonderful babies smell, cuddle, etc. Then you had a lapse in intelligent thinking at the wrong moment.
Step5
The one thing about this pregnancy is that you will be a pro at two things: taking care of the new bundle of joy and making sure it really doesn’t happen again.
