Most Embarassing Moment of my Life
Im not a big poster, but Im so mortified by tonights events I thought I would seek comfort! I have a 3 1/2 month old daughter so understandably I dont have very many opportunities for alone time with my fiance. She sleeps in our bed so its really hard to find the time to be together. She wont sleep in her crib yet so we have pretty much just gone without so far. Like I said my baby is 3 1/2 months old and before tonight we had only had sex once. Depressing. After getting my daughter to sleep in my bed I coaxed my fiance so come upstairs and have sex with me on our bedroom floor. So on top of trying to be extreemly quiet, we're on the hard floor in a cramped spot. We start and everything is fine except I still have some discomfort. Anyways to make a long story short, we change positions and then my hmm hmmm proceedes to sound like a whoopie cushion. I start laughing and that just makes it worse. It totally kills the moment so we didn't finish, and now Im dying of embarassment. Please tell me this has happened to other moms out there! We used to have sex like crazy and now with a baby and him going to school full time, its been impossible. Now with tonights misfortune I doubt I will be trying to do it again any time soon!
Re: Most Embarassing Moment of my Life
If this is the most embarassing thing for you then either yo have lived a very sheltered life or you are in for some more horrible shocks!...this is just something that happens in an intimate relationship. At least it adds a touch of earthiness, or even rudeness, that can be arousing once you get used to it. Only your partner heard it anyway so it's 'all in the family'.
Bye the way,...what part of a woman is the "hmm hmmm".......It sounds interesting and I don't think I'vefound it yet..........
I have the kind of face that attracts nutters on trains and buses, much to the joy and amusement of other travellers....one one occaision I was on the top deck of a bus which picked up a full load of factory girls who greatly enjoyed this lone man being accosted and touched up by a mad-woman desperate for a date! Another time, on the crowded London Underground (tube train) I was challenged by 'the tarantula keeper from hell' who insisted on placing his spider friend on my shoulder (fortunately I love spiders) much to the pleasure of the full carriage of commuters!!
It has nothing to do with being a mom, it happens to everyone. They even made a south park episode about it.
Exactly.
Also, I don't know anything about raising kids so I'm totally talking out of my butt here, but if I were you, I would be getting that kid to sleep in her own bed STAT. It kind of sounds like you're coddling her a bit much. It's okay if she sheds a few tears in her life, she'll live.
Get your daughter in her crib...after a few nights she'll be used to it. The longer you keep her out of her crib, the harder it will be to get her to use it.
Queefing happens...usually with certain positions. It's just air.
How old are you?
Repeat after me sugar...I have a vagina....I am an adult and I can call it a vagina...it is not now nor was it ever a hmmmm hmmmm.
for gods sake put the baby a crib or you are going to have a lot more problems than your hmmm hmmm making noises.
It happens and I laugh when it does. I think it happened the second time that I have ever had sex. There was silence then I cracked up laughing. Whenever it happens now, my husband always says "excuse me" we smile and move on.
Her bio says 23. This post made me lol. I knew the OP was going to get jumped on for the hhmmmmm hmmm.
I thought it would be at least as juicy as farting in her DHs face while he was going down on her. Now that would be embarrassing!
Haha, Lemon, mine says "Well said babe, glad you're having fun!" It's funny, it's natural, and it doesn't matter if you've ever had a baby or not. Maybe it's because I don't let much of anything kill the mood, but queefing is simply no big deal.
THATS IT?! a ***?! its more prone to happen in the doggy-style position because its easier to get air pushed up there. my husband and I just laugh it off and continue. even at 23, that has happened before. your hmm hmmm? I dont believe I am familiar with that term. Then again, I have always been very open about body parts, including my vagina. and why were you trying to have sex on the bedroom floor?! couches are good, bathroom counters work good too...and of course, the shower. it might be hard as a young mother to put your child down in their crib and listen to them cry, but its worth it! take control of your life and your child's life and get that baby into her own bed! its better in the long run! and once you do that, I am sure that sex will be a lot better (and more comfortable).
Your HMMMMM HMMMM?
Oh that's good. That's really good.
Now, when he performs oral on you, does he call it your "mmmm mmmm"?
*runs out of thread laughing*

You are going to be one of those mothers that doesn't use the word vagina around your daughter aren't you? and when she says vagina you are going to sush her.
Oh and this happens, its normal. If your boyfriend cant handle it then you should really reconsider a future with him.
I don't usually post here just lurking today. I just wanted to tell you that as a healthcare worker we do not recommend sleeping with your baby in your bed. I may get flamed for speaking up about this as some parents think this is ok. However, I have heard horror stories in my pediatric rotation about this.
According to the CPSC, at least 515 deaths were linked to infants and toddlers under 2 years of age sleeping in adult beds from January 1990 to December 1997

I don't understand why you can't put your baby in a crib while you have sex. Then get a baby monitor and leave the baby in the crib at night.
As for the queefing, get over it. No need to be embarrassed.

Wow laughing kills the moment? Really now. Some of our best sex has involved giggling our asses off over something stupid.
And yes, please use the word VAGINA. After all, you've already had a child. You should be used to that word by now!
the most embarrassing thing that happened to you ever in your life is when your vagina made a noise? (its not your Hmmm hmmm) WOW
like everyone else has said, your daughter needs to sleep in her crib, thats what its for. besides, she wont know that you're having sex on the floor, so do you have to be SO quiet?
"she" wont sleep in her bed? does she get to decide? she's gotta get used to it. good luck
THANK YOU! I have noticed on thebump that women use co-sleeping and bed-sharing as if they mean the same thing. Co-sleeping does reduce your SIDS risk, but bed sharing increases it.
Wow. The majority of you are a bunch of biitches. While I agree that it's not anything to be embarrassed about, I strongly disagree with you snots turning the post in to a judgemental bash session on this woman's parenting choices. I must also add that I am a mother of an almost 11 month old and she has NEVER slept in our bed. Ever. For those of you that are not mother's, you have completley overstepped your boundaries and have absolutely no right to give parenting advice. And for those of you that have judged this woman's choice to bed share and are parents; live and let live. Just because it doesn't work for you, doesn't mean it's wrong. It wasn't what my husband and I wanted, but do I judge someone elses parenting decision? No.
Oh but I forgot...I'm sure you are a model parent and everyone should agree with your thoughts and actions. BARF
Step off your fvcking podium and get a life.
um.. This!!
You are a grown woman. You can use proper terms here.
Like pps have said. It's called queefing and it happens to all of us. If that is indeed the most embarrassing thing to have happened to you, you must lead a very sheltered life.
sorry, but i agree with most of the other posters here. Who ever said that sex has to be serious? Laugh it off and move on.
I also I agree that a 3 month old baby shouldn't be sleeping in your bed. It's not safe and good luck getting her to sleep in her bed when she's older if you continue this... and you DEFINITELY shouldn't be leaving a baby sleeping on your bed alone. If she hasn't already learned to roll over, she will soon and it'll be trouble.
