if my BF and i are going to have sex and he wears a condom and i have him pull out when he thinks hes about to cum..does that make u less at a risk of pregnancy?

I will point out, though, that before boys have an orgasm, a certain amount of semen leaks out of their penis. This is called pre-cum. Pre-cum contains the same sperm that ejaculate does - it can get you pregnant.
Of course there's always a chance of getting pregnant, no matter how careful you are, but it seems like you are taking some good precautions. I'd like to point out that you can't be TOO safe - have you considered seeing a gyno and getting a prescription for a second form of birth control?
There are a ton of options that will fit your circumstances, and there are also clinics that will provide confidential, free advice...with birth control at a really reduced rate for teenagers. You'll need to start seeing a gyno now that you're having sex, so why not ask about other birth control options at the same time?
