Today, my girlfriend told me that she is pregnant. I asked how it could be possible, since she's on birth control. She said she didn't know her antibiotics would interfere with it. She's a pharmacist. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my girlfriend told me that she's pregnant. She'd told me she was on birth control, so I asked her to show me. She had been sticking the pills up her vagina like a suppository. FML
Today, I found out that even though my girlfriend is on the pill, and even though my girlfriend took emergency contraception, she became pregnant days after the first time we had sex without a condom. FML
Today, I found out that my girlfriend of five months is pregnant. Apparently, she stopped taking her pill two months ago because "we" wanted a baby. I don't recall ever having that discussion with her. FML
Today, I realised that when I asked my girlfriend four months ago if was she on the pill, she thought I meant hay fever tablets. I'm going to be a father. FML
Today, I found out the hard way that my girlfriend lied about being on the pill four months ago. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me that she feels pregnant. I didn't believe her, given how recently we had sex for the first time, so I told her to take a test to make sure. She's very sure now. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me she was pregnant. We haven't had sex yet. FML
Today, after my wife and I have been trying for a baby for 2 years, I found out she's still on the pill. Apparently when she was a teen she had bad period cramps, so her doctor gave her the pill for the pain. She never realized it stops pregnancy. FML
Today, my girlfriend came back from visiting her family. She'd forgotten to take her pills, and decided to "catch up" by taking almost a week's worth of birth control and prescription pills. She's fine, but I had to convince the ER staff that she's not suicidal, just stupid. FML
Today, I found out that I'm going to be a mother. This was a mystery, since I take birth control and use condoms all the time. Or, at least, it was, until my mother admitted to swapping my pills and poking holes in my condoms so she could have a grandchild before she died. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Just because she's a pharmacist, doesn't means she's a good one.

Pharmacist or pharmacist tech? I've had to tell techs about it. I'm not on hormonal bc but every time I get an antibiotic I remind them they need to ask. I've also told several friends in their late 20's and 30's who didn't know. Coworker's root canal baby just turned 5. Congrats!

A pharmacist should absolutely know this. Whether or not they remember to tell their patients is one thing. I've worked at a number of pharmacies as a technician, and while I was at my first store, on a college campus, the pharmacists ALWAYS asked women who were picking up antibiotics if they were taking an oral contraceptive, and warned them that the antibiotic could interfere with it, so use a backup. The number of other pharmacies I've worked at, though, I haven't heard the pharmacists ask their female patients this question. They just tell them whether or not to eat food with it, space out a probiotic, etc. But OP's girlfriend IS a pharmacist, and absolutely should have known to use a backup while on the antibiotic and for up to two weeks after treatment. There's no excuse for this. She had to have known, and this had to have been done on purpose. It sucks for OP, because I'm sure he'll have to pay for child support for her "mistake."

But ALL the bottles come with the sticker that says it may lessen the effectiveness of oral contraceptives and the pamphlet from the maker with drug interaction warnings. A well informed consumer should be reading these things.

How do you know he wasn't wearing a condom? They're aren't 100% effective. Plus, condoms aren't for everyone- there are many other forms of birth control.

Aren't there some antibiotics that don't interfere?

Birthcontrol alone wont stop pregnancies, you need protection so if you thought it wouldnt happen just because of pharmecueticals alone indeed FYL
