[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am pregnant with my fourth child. My oldest just turned six. Between kids, we used birth control, but even with a birth control method I was often worried that I may become pregnant when I didn't want to be. We had far less sex because of it, and I know that after this baby is born (my absolute last) I will be completely averse to having sex with my husband until he has a vasectomy.

I love and value my children and view them as an immense blessing and the best part of who I am. But I don't have the capacity to have more than four. And I need to have sex with my husband to maintain a healthy marriage.

So OP - what am I supposed to do under your set of rules?  I am highly fertile and get pregnant immediately when we stop birth control - and two of my pregnancies were conceived during times that should by most measures have been my "God given naturally infertile" times. So - birth control and healthy marriage, or abstinence and unhealthy marriage?  Which am I supposed to choose?[/quote]

Good for you for knowing your limits and not using your exceptional fertility to create a family so big that you have to have a reality show to pay for it, a la Duggar. [/quote]
