I suppose that your wife doesn’t want to make the sacrifice to self observation, right? It would be solution…

Maybe she have tried it before? And now she think it is to her husband to make “an effort” because she had already “give a lot”?

If it was me, I would refuse, and abstain if I would see no other solution.
 
What is one to do when their spouse wants them to contracept but feels after having 4 children that it is a sacrifice the man should make?
What “sacrifice” does your wife view contraception to be for the husband?

What is the objection (if any) to NFP?
 
@annad347

Complete abstinence generally isn’t recommended as the first option.

@TK421, well it wouldn’t be forever, just until she can no longer have children.

and yes now I’m kidding, and leaving… never have or will ever be married… God forgive me.
 
If the husband is asked to contracept, does that mean using a condom?
What is the success rate of condoms? Is it 75%? Is the wife agreeable to that success rate? I would ask her if that’s really what she wants.
 
Doubtful NFP is an acceptable solution to the wife. Even more doubtful a visit to a priest is going to change her mind.
Because you personally don’t agree with something doesn’t mean everybody else is of like mind. You have no idea what she will or won’t do.

Perhaps. I am old, though. I have a ton of life experience. Just giving my opinion based on what I do know.
