OK, so serious question (not about the dramz; it's about the s-e-x)
So, many are against having sex while co-sleeping child in sleeping/in room, etc. Makes sense.
BUT, what do you do when, for example, you're on vacation - maybe sharing one hotel room or something?
Is it still off-limits?
Perhaps I should make a poll. Or perhaps you weinies will answer.
Re: OK, so serious question (not about the dramz; it's about the s-e-x)
That's a no-no for me.
Well when we first had DD, we lived in a 2 bedroom apartment with DH's best friend. So, DD's crib was in our room until she was 6 months old, and DH's friend moved out.
So, next time I see CoriA she can smack me.
I have had sex with kids/adults in our hotel room, in our camper, in our house. They were all sleeping, well I hope so!
I will make sure that I don't smack you to hard!
It is a HUGE no-no to me. If they are a tiny baby then maybe not quite so bad, but still not happening at my house. I'm not naming names, but I'm sure that you all recall the BIG debate and the kids in question were the same age and older than C. Seriously...that is gross.
M slept in the bassinet next to our bed for 5 months. Yes we did have sex during that five months.
Flame away.
Honestly, I feel weird about it to. It is a tad creepy.
Does it help that we had a 14 foot walk in closet, so we were technically in another room?
Logistically, I guess the parents could go to the bathroom and have shower sex as long as the kid is dead-to-the-world asleep. That's my only contribution.
When we were on vacation in July and obviously had one hotel room for all 3 of us, there was no nookie whatsoever.
And when people are at home, why can't they just have sex in a different room?
THANK YOU!!!
YES! Haha!
I can't even do it with a pet in the room! LOL!
Sex in same room as sleeping infant, on vacay = little weird, not for me, but methinks no big deal.
Sex in same room as older baby/toddler/older kid, vacay or home = no can do. Weird. Not dying to have sex so much I can't wait or take it to another room/another time.
You know, this whole thing is funny to me, because I have only been flamed on the Nest a couple of times, and once was for this.
Evidently, a lot of ladies on the 0-6 month board (before the boards were divided) thought it was immature that I would only have sex with my husband in the closet. I was given a pretty sweet verbal lashing at the time.
Eh, I have no guilt about it at all. Honestly, I never even thought twice about it. Yea sure we could have gone to a different room, but he was sound asleep.
I do agree with this.
They would've loved me; I'm not sure I even had sex before the kid was 6 months! HA!
