Sex and kids....PLEASE tell me Im not alone!!

Ok, so DH and I were virgins when we got married and sex the first two years was good, not as often as I would like, but good. IT has gotten to the point where its great now! (practice makes perfect) BUT we have had three kids in 3 years and now we are just too tired. So it is like once every 3 weeks. This makes me so sad. Granted, we do have a newborn and Im sure it will get better once he is sleeping better, but by the time we get home, have dinner, play with the kids and get them to bed we are EXHAUSTED!!! I am missing our sex life, Im normally the one of us with the higher sex drive and even I am too tired lately.....it gets better right???

  • Can you get a babysitter once a week for a date night?
  • You had 3 kids in 3 years? Jeez. Since you are a SAHM, just moved, bought a house, and have 3 kids there's probably not much spare money for a baby sitter. You will just have to do the best you can until your kids are older and a bit more independent. If keeping the spark alive was so important to you, I'm not sure why you had so many kids so quickly and close together, but I guess that's neither here nor there at this point.

    I'm sure that you are both definitely exhausted, but do you think maybe your H is not as interested in sex because every time he winks at you you get knocked up? Just a thought.

    Haha, This.

    No but seriously, 3 kids in three years is a lot for both of you. I think you might have to just ride this one out, at least until your children get a little older.
