Last Sunday I spent 3 hours finishing off Mormonism in an LDS Church with a sweet friend I met online, Janie. She has her own blog here. She kindly met me here in North Richland Hills so we could go to the ward near my home. As I have been reading her blog, I asked her to share her unique perspective and the LDS perspective on contraception and sterilization. Here are her thoughts:
A Mormon Perspective on Pregnancy, Family Planning, and Sterilization
After During my pregnancy with my fourth child, I was SURE we were done. I told everyone my husband was getting the
big snip and I reminded him frequently. I got a card for an urologist from my OB and
I carried that card in my wallet. I was considering permanent measures so that I would never EVER have to experience morning sickness again. Add to that: we already had four children (a bigger family than many), my husband had recently been laid off his job, and our house was already bursting at the seams.
Four was enough, we were done.
