   I have never used a patch, so I can’t help you to damage it… have you tried to talk to your partner about having children and see if there isn’t a way that you can have a family without deceiving him? Good luck.

   Don’t wear one. But, if this would be obvious to your partner, try saving one for month or two longer and continue to wear that one. But if you think that this might be risky, try finding something that will stick onto your skin that looks just like it.

   I’m not sure if you can damage it but not taking it will work, and who are you trying to hide it from your child’s potential father (that wouldn’t be a smart thing to do)

   glue paper to it and then glue the paper side to your skin.

   Ortho evra is not a good source of birth control. I would stop taking it for your health.

    For wanting to have baby you cannot save or keep relationship if you should be honest with your partnernot being sneaky or secret about it are you want to be honest with your reasons for wanting to get honest with your partner you kidding if you arent going to be honest.
    For wanting to be talking honestly at your reasons for wanting to look honestly with your boyfriend you arent going to get honest with your partnernot being sneaky or secret about it are you cannot save or keep relationship if you need to look honestly at your boyfriend you cannot.
    For wanting to have baby you should be talking honestly at your partner you arent going to look honestly with your reasons for wanting to look honestly with your partner you cannot save.

    You really shouldn’t have keep quite about wanting to get pregnant. If you’re serious and want to be a good mother, the father of your future child needs to be made aware and be willing to father the child as well. You should make sure you’re ready and in the position financially and emotionally to have a kid, because it’s not something you should treat like hiding a grade check from you’re parents.

    But if you really want to get pregnant secretly, you have to make sure that the patch wares off first. It’s not as affective when it’s off, but birth control still need some time to work itself out. But if put rubbing alcohol on it, I don’t think it’d work after that. There’s also sample patches that don’t prevent pregnancy, they’re just so new users can get used to them. I’m sure you can find them at the same place where you bought the real deal, and I know magazine ads used to have them. You can’t tell the difference, but they can’t prevent pregnancy.

    I think you are making a poor decision to get pregnant without having your partners approval. You are not only going to change your life, but he life of your baby and your baby’s father. This will cause more heartache, than happiness. How do you know that your partner will be happy to be a parent. He is trusting you to continue with your BC, if you damage it, or stop taking it without talking to him you will lose his trust. And if there is no trust in a relationship, there really is no relationship. Bad Choice, talk to your man, make the good choice together.

    Are you serious? Why would you want to keep that a secret from him?? If you are planning to manipulate him behind his back without him knowing you probably arent ready for the commitment a baby requires. If you want them and he doesnt maybe you should just find someone who does. But trying to do all this behind someone’s back is just childish.

    Put a double sided tape on the sticky side of it. So it will stick to your skin ,but he won’t see the tape. With double sided tape covering the side of birth control none of it will touch your skin.

    The most lowdown things have ever heard what gall you have if he doesnt want baby dump him and find someone who wants family.

17. claudia351 on June 20th, 2008 10:34 am

    just tell him you got another method of bc and just carry it around like your birthcontrol pills just empty one out each day he’ll belive you !!

    I don’t think this is wrong. I am doing it too. I’m not decieving him, he just wants to wait a while because he thinks he has to have a certain amount of money to do it. I already have one (not with him) but he loves him and does want another one. I took a preg test a few months ago cuz i thought it might have happened and when i told him it said no he was actually very disappointed. So yes he wants kids, just not right now, but i know he would be happy if it did happen. So can anyone tell me if i am doing something wrong by secretly trying to get pregnant because I dont want to wait?

    Absolutely disasterous thing to do and each and every one of you sons of @$#%#@ giving her advice on how to do are scum…now let me explain. My ‘girl’ did this to me and now she can’t handle the toddlers, at all. My anger and resentment is so powerful as a result my kids are being damaged and the whole household is just cold and angry.

    This isn’t like the kid who got a dog on Christmas, you will ruin lives. DON’T DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
