S/O POLL: Sexless, a birthcontrol option

Honestly, how often do you two do it ....

Re: S/O POLL: Sexless, a birthcontrol option

  • Since becoming pregnant with Zac I can pretty much say we have sex once a month ... and it is usually right before my period, that's how I remember.

    Totally at my fault, not his.

    Occassionally we've gotten spunky and thrown an extra in there.

  • Once a week is pretty average for us. Sometimes more, sometimes less but we never go longer than 2 weeks.
  • If it were up to him, every day would be ideal. I was trying to make sure we did it once a week. I would feel bad by the time it was two weeks and I still didn't want to do anything, so I'd throw some pity his way and it was just about that romantic.

    Right now, I'm really not sure when the last time was, maybe two weeks, three? I'd love to just forget about it until January though.

    I remember getting to that point around 37 weeks maybe? I put my foot down and told DH no more sex in the champagne room. 

  • With all the craziness going on in our lives, especially our opposite work schedules, it was pretty bad for a long time after Collin. In the past couple months things have improved greatly and while there is sometimes a 2 or so week gap, there are also periods of every day for several days.

  • Once a month. Sometimes once a week. It has been 2 weeks. He wants it bad now...I have zero interest
  • Now it's around 2-3x a week.

    When I was on BCPs, anxiety medicine, thyroid was whacked out, etc. It was closer to once a month or so.

  • usually 2-3 times a week--mostly weekends, not enough for DH

    Tell me about it! Ha!

    I try to still give it up twice a week, but it's getting less fun for me these. He still gets taken care of though, I feel bad ;)

  • Anywhere from 1-3 times a week. Since DH started fall semester, it's been nuts. The past two months have been especially nuts. He works all day, goes to school, works until late at night, and then does homework. We seriously see each other for an hour at night, if that. No time for sex.

    I wonder if it ever slows down?!

  • About once a week, sometimes twice.  When we're working opposite schedules it gets tough.

  • Maybe once a month on average since having Nolan. There's been a month here and there where it's been more like 3x but then there are some months where it's been 0.

    I tried to initiate the other day cause it's been over a month but I'm just not into it. :(

  • I'm with PP that every day is ideal for him. I find the more I do it the more I get into it. However this past month around my fertile time he wanted to hold off for a couple of days so more powerful sperm were available (his theory, not mine, I have no idea if that's correct). 

    We try for at least three times a week.  If I'm really stressed its usually less though, or if I'm a little tired of his antics.

    This is us! He could go with every day but I rarely am in the mood. I am so exhausted all of the time (work-related, mostly!) and I am sure the BC pills and anxiety meds don't help!

    This. However on the way to work today I informed DH that starting tomorrow we are DTD every other day for a week. It's baby making time :) 

  • Once a week, or every two weeks.  He starts getting pissy around the two week mark so I give in....lol

    This is pretty much us too.

    This is us...except for when I'm hugely pregnant! 

    Under normal circumstances I am wanting it by the time we get to 2 weeks, so that doesn't happen very often.
