I don’t really think that often about the ways I’m different from regular folks (even though technically I’m a total outcast hippie freak).
Then I realize something like how I haven’t been on The Pill since 1996 (amazing how those headaches disappeared!) … .that’s 15 YEARS! This also includes nothing else going into my body or on my man’s body.
It’s a wonder we only have 5 kids, right?! (don’t forget that Natural Family Planning is NOT the old rhythm method … I’m not even going to capitalize it because it doesn’t deserve it because it failed more often than not I’m guessing).
At a cost of at least $10 per month for the Pill (actually, our copay is probably double that), I’ve saved about $1800 … so far. Natural Family Planning isn’t just good for the Catholics; it’s also good for those who want to go green, do something natural for their body and save a ton of bank!

Future Breastfeeders of America
January 26, 2011
Today 15-month-old Sam wanted to nurse and I was busy, so Callie lifted her shirt for him to nurse.
He looked at her funny and pulled her shirt down for her.
Then he headed back to me, saying “nay nay” (nursing), which he’s been saying for months.
Someone recently asked me if size matters when you’re nursing (his wife has big ones, apparently). Nah, size doesn’t matter. My breast is always bigger than my newborn’s head, and, amazingly enough, I haven’t smothered one yet.
