thanks. It isn't like I don't want NFP to work, but I have been convinced on two other occasions that I was "doing it wrong" and gave it another try only to conceive when it was supposed to be impossible to conceive.
Needless to say, I have a major trust issue with NFP.
But I shouldn't whine when I consider the poor couple (was it from New Jersey?) who appealed to Rome for their unique situation.
They couldn't monitor her fertile signs because her cycle was so irregular. She also couldn't carry a pregnancy to term because of an incompetent cervix.
This resulted in multiple miscarriages.
I believe their question was something like "is it better to artificially contracept than to continue to have dead babies?"
The answer came back "no" - live a life of celibacy.
yikes.
Wow. I had not heard of this NJ case. Do you have a link to the story? BTW, I hear ya on being overly fertile. It sounds like my wife and I have had very similar experience to yours.
