How Do I Learn Natural Family Planning?
Want to learn Natural Family Planning? Ready to make the switch? Great! There is really only one comprehensive way to learn NFP... And, that's with the book, "The Art of Natural Family Planning" (4th Edition or New 'Student Guide'). There are a couple of ways to get this book... It is available to order at
The Couple to Couple League's Website.
Back in September 2004, Ray and I ordered the 4th edition book (pictured here) - which came in a 'home study course' package. The Couple to Couple League (CCL) recently updated their book and materials, and created a new study course. It is the same price as the old course - $159.00. That is pretty inexpensive, considering that you may be spending more on other birth control methods. For example - most birth control pills cost about $20.00 per month, right? That's $240.00 per year. The CCL's Natural Family Planning package is only $159, and the information you learn will last a lifetime. Plus, you get a ton of bonuses with your CCL study course, and a money back guarantee. See the website for more details. But, if you can't afford the Couple to Couple League's NFP Study Course... Here's a cheaper way to learn NFP. Get the older book that Ray and I used,
The Art of Natural Family Planning by John F. and Sheila K. Kippley.
At this Amazon link, You can get a new copy for less than $20. Also, scroll down and get the book, Fertility, Cycles & Nutrition by Marilyn Shannon. It is only about $10.
It is a wonderfully informative book about how your nutrition effects your cycles. I highly recommend it! Plus, this book will qualify you for Amazon's "FREE Super Saver Shipping." And...I don't know about you...but, I would rather spend money on great book instead of shipping! :o) Then, all you need is a Basal Digital Thermometer ($10), also available at Amazon. And, the "Daily Observation Charts (4th ed)" ($2.50). Grab the yellow ones, available at the CCL website. Total: about $42.50 + tax and any S&H. You will be missing out on the Couple to Couple League's study course bonuses. But, you can save a good amount of money this way - and you will have everything you need! Please keep in mind - individual results may vary. If you always record your fertility signs, and stick with the book's conservative rules, you have a 99% chance at avoiding pregnancy. I am only making a recommendation - I am not responsible if you get pregnant while using NFP. :o) The reality is - every method has some chance at pregnancy. Some are more or less effective than others. Abstinence is the only 100% birth control method. Wouldn't you rather use a method that's in tune with how God created you? We would! Natural Family Planning has worked perfectly for us. It will work for you too - just follow the book. ~~~~Did you miss my previous pages?
