We are exploring the beautiful intersection of Natural Family Planning (NFP) and breastfeeding, and how these two practices are not only biologically intertwined but also support women spiritually and emotionally.
We discuss how both NFP and breastfeeding foster trust - in our bodies, our babies, our spouses, and ultimately, in the Lord.
Using relatable analogies (like learning to ride a bike), this episode unpacks the challenges and triumphs common to both journeys, emphasizing that both are processes that demand patience, faith, and community.
You can expect practical insights on how breastfeeding naturally supports fertility awareness, the importance of tuning into your body’s cues, and why building a supportive “red tent” community for mothers makes all the difference.
