Today, I realized that without my birth control pills, I would have no idea what day it is. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Malpractice
Today, I found out that I have unnecessarily been using birth control for the past 10 years. A surgery I had following a complication with my first child apparently rendered me infertile, and none of the doctors bothered to enlighten me. 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
Today, I figured out how my birth control works. If you're on your period for four months straight you can't have sex, so you won't be pregnant. FML
Too little, too late
Today, I went to the health department to get on some birth control. I left the health department without birth control, and with the news that I'm pregnant. FML
Today, I found out I was born as a result of someone switching my mom's birth control pills with Tic Tacs. FML
Today, I realized that without fail, even if I'm not supposed to get it, I get my period just in time for vacations. FML
Today, I discovered my boyfriend has been slipping me abortion pills to "supplement" my regular birth control. FML
Today, I found out that after using several types of birth control, and being paranoid about pregnancy, I've been infertile for years. FML
Yeet it
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
Safety first
Today, I found out that morning after pills don't work if you're already ovulating. I also found out that I might become a father wayyyy sooner than expected. FML

Maybe you should invest in a watch.

Or a watch with not only time but the date on it. Far more cheaper.

I'm pretty sure 1 doesn't understand the problem. Birth control pills aren't habit forming, just when you're stuck in the same routine you don't remember what day it is. Getting pregnant and/or having a more annoying menstrual cycle wouldn't help!

I figured it was that way for most girls above 15.

80 - That's what I figured. Most women who go on birth control stay on it for years. I was put on the pill when I was fifteen (I was a virgin until eighteen) for health reasons. I'd still be on the pill if estrogen didn't give me migraines - now I'm on the shot. There's no real reason for her to go off of them, not just because of this. I've been disabled for a little over a year, I never know what day it is unless I have something scheduled and my phone reminds me. I'm a bit more in tune in the winter months - I know when the hockey games are, so I usually know what day of the week it is. I don't usually know the date, though.

I'm thinking you don't know what birth control pills are if you think that getting off them will help her remember what day it is. The pill packet has each day written on them (so you know what day to take each one). OP just has crappy memory and can't remember what day it is until she sees it written on her pill packet.

Im a stay at home mum and i have the same problem. At least OP is being sensible and responsible about her sex life, if that's even why she's taking them. i originally started taking mine because i had really painful periods and the pill helps reduce that. Dont automatically assume she's just a dumb ****.

I agree with you! I take them because I was anemic and had pain like you! People are awful these days to judge!

I don't think that anyone is really concluding that she's a ****.......just maybe should get a calendar or a phone/tv/ computer etc......it's more about the date than anything
