My husband and I practice Natural Family Planning(sympto-thermal method) and I was wondering if anyone had thoughts or experience on the subject. I've found the education I have had to get to do it taught me SO much that I can't imagine how I functioned before I understood so much how the female body functions. It's awesome to know when it is nearly impossible to get pregnant and when it is most possible and when is most possible to have a boy versus a girl, and to just be able to understand every little quirk about my body that might otherwise worry me! I like my husband and I to be so in tune with my body. Also the alternating periods of abstinence seem to make the periods of nonabstinence much more to look forward to. Kinda like an alternating courtship and honeymoon.
