I could never do that to my husband haha but I've considered it, just because that's how much I really don't want another baby at this time in my life.

It's been 9.5 weeks since I had my son, and we still haven't DTD yet, we've been doing "other stuff" to keep each other satisfied - partly because I just don't feel ready yet and partly because I like the assurance it gives me that I can't possibly get pregnant while I have a two month old baby! But I know it won't be much longer til we resume normal sexual activity.

Did anyone ever practice abstinence as a long-term birth control?
