My wife and I use Natural Family Planning. You can Google it, and there are many different resources for practicing it. Best of all, it's the cheapest form of family planning. Natural Family Planning taught my wife and I how sacred our union is, and also how important it is to focus on each other, not just physically, but spiritually, and emotionally. We have been blessed with 3 beautiful girls, and have practiced NFP to space the family that we can handle. Sure, there are times when refraining from sex is necessary; but life isn't all about personal gratification (unless your a spoiled bratty kid). Also, it keeps us from thinking we are in complete control of our lives through a pill, or a piece of rubber, etc (which are not as reliable as the labels claims). It helps us to take responsibility for what we do, and if it doesn't work, we are the only ones who are responsible.
NFP gives us sound practical ways to postpone pregnancy in a way that not only helps us financially, but also strengthens the bond of the family, through communication and mutual self respect. Those who practice NFP, are 99% effective at postponing pregnancy. We've come to learn so much about ourselves, and our relationship through the relatively short periods of abstinence. With NFP, I'm optimistic that our union will truly last a long and healthy lifetime.
