That, plus because her mother is a herbalist, she's probably well aware that the available birth control is unreliable.

But I think Katniss is the sort of person who would assume that if it can go wrong, it will go wrong, or at least that you have to plan for it to go wrong. Her fear of children isn't based on a rational calculation on how likely she is to get pregnant - it's so overwhelming that it prevents her from thinking about the positive aspects of sex at all.

For post rebellion situations, though, I feel that the 'how did they have sex without her getting pregnant' just isn't that interesting. The Capitol's level of medical technology is so advanced and they're such a hedonistic society, that I'd find it totally implausible that they didn't have ultra-reliable contraceptives. (That said, someone - I think Fernwithy - wrote quite a sweet fic along the lines of 'three times Katniss had the long term contraceptive shot, and one time she didn't', which was basically about how Katniss came to be in a place where she was happy to have a baby).
