Best condoms? We need to use them for a while

AIBU: condoms are drying and sore?

I've just had my third and likely final baby

I'm not wanting to be pregnant again in the near future, but I don't particularly want to use the pill.

Don't get on with coil. Implant wait times to get them out and bleeding stories give me the horrors.

I don't know much about the patch or injection but I want to research them

we used the withdrawal method for 9 years with only one mistake when we didn't use the withdrawal method when I thought I was having a period (the third baby) but i did want to have another baby and my husband and I had the attitude if it happens then it happens

But now I do not want a baby and I do not want my husband to have a vasectomy, it feels far too permanent for a variety of reasons.

So what condoms can we use? I've found them very strange when I've used them in the past. I do not like the smell and I'm sure they dry out your natural lubrication.

My husband is very big when he has an erection and in the past the ordinary condoms like the blue Durex ones, they squeezed his penis. Is there another one that is less narrow?

What is a good one? Sorry I don't know who to ask, so I've come here. Hope this doesn't make anyone respond with something cruel about not knowing about contraception. Whilst I learn about what is available I want to still have sex which means we need condoms.

Thank you
