Welcome to Carrots! I'm so glad you're here. This is where I share thoughts on liturgical living, faith, parenting, culture, and an extra dose of Jane Austen. You can sign up for my email newsletter here to stay in touch, or look me up on Instagram!
We’re one week into our crazy 6 week family road trip, folks! And it’s going great. We hit Atlanta, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and Grandfather Mountain, NC, and Beech Mountain, NC. But I haven’t had much time with an internet connection so I didn’t realize it was NFP Awareness Week this week.
There’s been a good many posts about NFP at Carrots over the years, so I thought I’d link to a few of my favorites here and I’ll be sharing them on social media, too.
- Top 11 Reasons to Try Creighton by Michele Boda of Bodafide
- How NFP Got Me Pregnant by Kaitlin Alfermann of More Like Mary~More Like Me
- When Natural Family Planning Doesn’t Go According to Your Plan by Christy Isinger of fountains of home
- I Wish I’d Known About NFP Sooner by Kathleen of Becoming Peculiar
And from around the web:
- Why NFP Is Great for Men, Too: Daniel Bearman
- Territory Folks Should Stick Together: Molly Makes Do
- The Thing I Wish People Would Stop Telling Me: Team Whitaker
So if you feel inclined, share about NFP on social media this week. I wish someone had told me that NFP was an option when I was on the Pill. I wish I could have avoided the terrible side effects and the health issues that I’m still dealing with. I wish I could have been exposed to an entirely different perspective on my fertility that honored my body.
Thanks for sharing all those great links, Haley. I pray y’all continue to have a vacation full of no construction, happy memories and great time with folks you love. See you in Tejas soon!
