Since we are so slow.... CLICKY POLL (possible TMI)

MammaBear81

SOOOO, last night I was tired, but DH and I haven't had sexy time in over a week.... We made an executive decision to put the kids to be 45 minutes early so we had time (and energy) to get things going.  Kids were down by 7:15, we had a blast (no pun intended) and were ready to go to sleep ourselves by 9:15.  I know if the kids went to bed at 8 it wasn't happening, 45 minutes made the biggest difference.  Of course we aren't going to do this every night, but it might be a Saturday night thing!  So my question is has anyone done this?! Or am I a bad mom for hurrying the kiddos to bed?

I voted SS because it never would have occurred to me to do this - I just have no desire to have sex at the moment.  I don't think it's wrong to do though!

I see nothing wrong with this! Thanks for he idea (saving it for second trimester web I don't feel like puking on poor DH)

I voted SS as well because DH works at night so sexy time doesn't happen at night. i have put LO down for a nap and furiously texted husband to come home for sexy time before LO was up again(today).

I voted SS...I wouldn't do it (because I only get a few hours with her in the evening as it is) but it isn't wrong.

Of course, our sex life still hasn't returned to normal.  I blame this on DH's working third shift.  And it seems I'm the one that has to make the first move.  I have, on occasion, taken to telling him that when I have got her to sleep for the night, he better be upstairs and naked when I leave her room.

SS- it has occurred to us, and we have tried it but she was not having it at all.  We use a playpen filled with toys plus cartoons if it's been awhile.

SS.  We put our little ones to bed between 8:30 and 9 (they are late nappers), but DH and I are usually up until 11 as it is working on things in seperate areas of the house.  The fact that we have all that time doesnt make a difference...lol.

yeah. Like Gym said. I don't have much desire but when we want to DTD we have the opportunity. DH doesn't even get home from work until after DD is asleep.

brilliant! 

i'm also lacking in desire at the moment, but you do what you have to do!

I voted ss. I have done this a few times when I was going out with the girls and still wanted ds to have his bedtime routine with me.

I voted SS because we are usually up for a couple hours after she goes down anyway. We will just wait until she's asleep at bedtime/naptime.

I'm the bad mommy who has done it while she was playing on the floor, in the swing next to the bed (when younger), and while she was awake in her crib.  If all of a sudden in the middle of the day we feel like doing it we usually just stick her in her crib.

Most of the time we just wait until she goes to sleep for the night.

This.  I didn't think it was worthy of the "No, that's just wrong" option though, so I was SS for the same reasons.
