There is no restriction on the use of Birth Control for Jehovah's Witnesses however their respect for life means they avoid methods that would terminate the life of a fertilized egg or embryo.
If they so desire. The Awake magazine, printed by Jehovah's Witnesses, of 22nd February 1993 says''Does the Bible condemn birth control? No, it does not. The choice is left with the couple. If a married couple decides to practice birth control, their choice of contraceptives is a personal matter. However, the method of birth control a Christian couple chooses should be governed by a respect for the sanctity of life. Since the Bible indicates that a person's life begins at conception, Christians would avoid contraceptive methods that abort, or end the life of, the developing child.''
No. Matter of fact is, jesus was born on the 9th month of the year, it is written, but pagans have destroyed the truth. The truth is being told however, by Jehovahs witnesses. (psalms 83.18)
You start loving and training the child. There are no rituals or solemn events setup and advocated. Many witnesses feel a gratefulness to their creator and a deep responsibility to care for the precious gift they now have.

Jehovah's Witnesses have no prohibition against the use of birth control. They would, however, object to a method of birth control that resulted in the destruction of an already fertilzed egg since they believe life begins at conception and that this would violate a respect for the sanctity of life.If they so desire. The Awake magazine, printed by Jehovah's Witnesses, of 22nd February 1993 says''Does the Bible condemn birth control? No, it does not. The choice is left with the couple.
