what are your thoughts on "pulling out" as a backup method to the pill? I know that on its own it's only somewhat effective, but we want a backup for the pill and aren't a huge fan of condoms.

do those of you on the pill use backup? what do you use?

(p.s. i'm in a monogamous relationship w/ my bf of 2.5+ years and we were both eachother's firsts... so I'm not that concerned about STDs)
My thoughts on pulling out: NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER. It does not work.

I keep hearing that the Today sponge is back on the market but I haven't seen them anywhere. I used them when they were still out several years ago and they're pretty great. There is also Encare -- I'd recommend that over pulling out any day.
