Fasting often incorporates abstaining from maritial relations.
Not using contraception does not mean you will have a large family. I know people who only had 6, 4, 2 and 0 kids, despite not using contraception. A lot of it has to do with the natural fertility and age of the couple. In the end it is God who opens and closes the womb when we allow Him, and He always knows what is best for us, even though we may not understand or agree.
I'm familiar with what you meant when you said fasted and prayed.
I don't think that a person who uses no contraception but has 3, 2, 5 kids only has to do with natural fertility and the age of the couple.
