to summarise muslims are encouraged to have children, men are told to marry fertile women, and unless there is a reason to stop having children (like its harmful for mother/kids had to be delivered by c-section etc) then it is not allowed.
contraception is allowed but not on a permanent basis
and Allah knows best
Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar
umar radhiallahu anhu use to force himself to cohabit (i cudnt find a better word )with his wives at times when he felt no desire whilst making the dua' " oh Allah bestow upon me a son who will glorify you"

Explenation: Allah grants lives, and Allah takes care of them for those who have Tawwaqul, it might seem like your not financially fit etc to take care of so many but then who knows where Allah will give rizq from.

I don't think that what you're thinking is necessarily haraam, but you have to be careful because certain contraceptives, particularly birth control pills which have an effect on your body are haraam. And, Allah will decide what is best for you and your family.
