One person will ask any question to get to know their board members better, and the next person will answer it and then ask a question of their own.
Why did you pick your screen name?

Faith (Catholic) and health reasons.
When was the last real life conversation you had about NFP or FAM? Who with?

My SIL a good 2 years ago.
Have you ever POAS just to get rid of the craving to POAS even though you knew it would be a BFN?

Sometimes I'd start POAS at 6DPO, but it didn't get it out of my system
Was DH always on board with NFP/FAM or did you have to convince him?

I learned NFP as a college intern for a fertility care center. It wasn't for family planning reasons, it was free to learn and I had extremely irregular cycles and NFP helped me pinpoint exactly when I was going to have my period. So 3 years after I learned NFP, I got married and was able to confidently use it for family planning reasons. DH, even though he's not Catholic, always trusted my scientific knowledge and he's the most pro-life Protestant I've ever met. I did not have to convince him at all.
Will you use NFP/FAM until menopause or will it be temporarily until you're done having kids?

9 or 10 would be ideal but my health doesn't allow for me to be pregnant constantly and I'm already 32. Women in my family have kids until around 50 and I'm not sure if I'll be that lucky, so we'll see. There's also the financial aspect. I want to be able to afford all of the kids that I'll be blessed with.

I'd like to birth two, but I'd be open to parent more than 2.
Have you ever considered any permanent form of birth control when your family is complete?

Definitely. I would like to get the Essure procedure done as well as uterine ablation.
Where do you fit in the family? First, last, middle, only?

I may end up with a hysterectomy just because I'm already having so many uterus issues, but I'd like to avoid that and just use FAM until menopause.
Do you have any pets?
Oops, Rachel and I answered at the same time, lol.
I'm the baby with just an older sister.
Do you have any pets?

Since I'm a c-section Mama, they have to be born in a hospital.
What age would you like to be when you have your last child?
