BCP and using no more condoms as back up

Hi ladies,

Just need a shoulder and some ideas right now. I'm one of those people who needs to have a back up for everything just in case. My husband and I have been using condoms as a back up for a year and a half. I am also on BCP but I'm always nervous about using them alone. Anyway, my husband has made up his mind about using no more condoms. I'm sooo freaking out because I don't want to get pregnant and although I use the BCP as instructed I can't help to think that if something back fires w/ the pills I won't have a back up plan and then I'll get pregnant. :-( Then I'd probably be taking the pills and be pregnant and w/ my luck not even know it. And I can't have "fun" when we have sex because "will I get pregnant tonight" is going through my mind in many ways the whole time. UGH

TIA for your comments! T-
