Sleep Sex?

I'm wondering if anyone else experiences sleep sex like my husband and I have.

On occasion, we will wake up mid foreplay and extremely aroused. I'm not complaining because it generally ends in great sex. I'm just curious.

If you don't like something, change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it.

Re: Sleep Sex?

  • I have not, but I have a friend who takes Ambien and she does all kinds of crazy things while asleep. This did happen to her once. Her husband woke up to her trying to get it on. Are you guys on any kinds of meds that might have that kind of side effect?
  • I'm on the pill for birth control, but otherwise no.

  • Yes - Its not all the time, but when it happens its def great sex. I thought we were the only ones haha.
    ~E~
  • I don't know how I do it, but I'm a SUPER deep sleeper. The only thing that wakes me is the alarm clock's loud, annoying beep. According to my man, he can actually get it in and keep going for a few min before I wake up and look flustered at what's going on, lol. But then it always turns into really good sex :3

    I'd like to play with him in his sleep more, but he's kind of a light sleeper :/

    And he wakes at 5am during the work week, so I don't want to disturb his sleep. 

  • I haven't experienced this however I have wildly vivid dreams that arouse me and sometimes feel like an orgasm has happened in the dream. i never wake right up so i have no idea if its actually happened or not but i can feel my body reacting to it in the dream, I wonder has that happened to anyone else?
  • Yep.  Good times.

  • My DH initiates it while still sleeping. Sometimes he doesn't even wake up throughout the whole thing. He'll ask "Where are my underwear?" The next morning. "Did we have sex?"

  • This has happened to my FI & I. I am so happy we're not the only ones, but just like how majority has said it's AWESOME SEX!!!!!! 
  • Yes, TOTALLY awesome sex!  This happen end more to me when I was younger (30 now)....no matter when it happens...it is hott and I love it.  Can it happen it more please?  (Minus the whole ambien thing....ha ha, no judgement). :)
  • p.s. sorry for typo...this happened more to me when I was younger...not happen end more...lol. night gals

  • With MW having to comfort our LO when he goes to sleep, sometimes waking her up in the morning is the only way for us to have sex.  I usually initiate and she, in her sleepiness will dictate if it will happen or not.
  • Idonalo1 you're not the only one. This has happened to me many times before. I don't mind. But I always wonder if I make any noise so that my husband knows what's going on?

    Yes! In fact, I just had this last night. Really wish that somehow DH would get clued in and take advantage of it, 'cause that could end SO well!
  • oh, yeah. But not in a long time. Miss those dreams.
