Religious topic about birth control
My husband and I are religious. I was raised Baptist and he was raised Methodist. We had our 1st child in Feb and we are ready to start back having sex after a hard and rough delivery. I was on birth control when we got married, but came off of it as soon as I said, "I do!". I'm scared of the "Pill" it made me so emotional and crazy and I think the birth control stayed in my system for a long time since it took us nearly two years to have a baby and we had a miscarriage. I've heard horror stories of diaphragms and IUDs and we are not a fan of condoms. I called my doctor to talk about what type of birth control would be right for us. I told my husband about my appointment that I have made and that I was nervous. He told me that he didn't see why we should even use birth control..
He said think about how long it took us to conceive.. And that He believes that God wouldn't give me more then I can handle.
I'm not ready to get pregnant again. I had a rough pregnancy and it was emotional, I don't know if I could take care of a newborn and deal with possibly another pregnancy like the one I just had. He makes me feel like I don't have faith because I feel like we need to be on birth control.. any advice on the situation?
