Tonight's Sexy Poll

Or maybe this should be an 'un'sexy poll?[Poll]

Raven0227 · April 2011

I chose a month, but to be fair both of those times were after having DDs which I had to have by c-section so no sex for us. Poor DH. I was way too tired to think about sex anyway.

During a regular time we've gone no more than a week. We've been married for 8 years, just in case that week sounds like a long time to you newly married peeps. :-)

pinkmickey24 · April 2011

I responded about a month maybe a little longer because the thyroid medicine I was on caused my period to never stop for close to three months (it only would stop for 2 days before restarting and we would have our fun then), and DH will not touch me with a ten foot pole when AF is around. It definitely took the trying out of TTGP.

I clicked a month without sex, but that was when we were apart from each other for about 6 weeks. While in the same house, the longest has been about a week, but thankfully that hasn't happened much! (oh, and we've been married for 5.5 years)

huskymomma94 · April 2011

Even though we are newlyweds, there was one month where I got super sick for like 2 weeks...then DH got it after me and was sick for another 2 weeks. I was so sad. ETA: I know I shouldn't have been sad about it, and there was a legit reason we weren't having sex. I do think that there was some sort of social pressure I created in my mind (zomg, newlyweds should be having sex everyday or else something is wrong), that made me more upset about it than I should have been.

McKBaby · April 2011

I answered "a few months", BUT it was after I was recovering from brain sugery, so I don't consider that a real dry spell. Other than that time, the longest we've gone has been a few weeks.

lyndzee_6@hotmail.com · April 2011

The longest was while my husband was out of town... but we have only been married just over a year and don't have children yet so I am sure that skews the numbers some

kcfan729 · April 2011

3 weeks after I gave birth to DD. We been married 1 1/2 yrs.

3 weeks? Wow. We didn't even attempt it until 11 weeks, which did not go so well.

MamaWino · April 2011

If we get to week I don't hear the end of it so I usually give in

KayteandRob · April 2011

i chose a month, but it may not have been quite that long. a few years ago, DH was battling some pretty serious depression and we had a dry spell or two. it was awful and looking back on it, it may have helped him feel better about himself if we were having sex regularly so i have a lot of guilt about the whole thing. ah, hindsight...

brookelynpaisley · April 2011

Oh lordy. We're currently at about 3 weeks. I wore DH out with the TTC this cycle and we took a little break. Just as things were getting back to us wanting it again, DH got sick, then my sister got married, then AF started. I'm ending the drought tonight, though, come hell or high fvcking water.

Yes

Sweetest116 · April 2011

I chose a few months, but it might be closer to 6. I suspect that DH has a testosterone issue but he refuses to listen to me. We'll see in June when we get a SA done and his BW. He has zero sex drive. If it wasn't for TTC we'd never do it. Kinda sad when you think about it but we'll get it all figured out soon.

This. We didn't even think about it until 6-7 weeks after DS, and it took awhile for it to "go well." lol

This, we've been together for 7 years, but have been married almost 2 years

almostapearl · April 2011

I put a month...having DD definitely took a toll on our sex life...plus I'm taking some online classes (to go towards an ADN/BSN eventually) that I do at night so that takes the fun out of things too. DH is looking forward to when we start to TTC #2 'cause he knows we'll have more sexy time than we do now LOL

sekura · April 2011

I put a few weeks; DH and I lived apart 2 summers ago because of my job, and we'd only see each other every 2-3 weeks. We might have gone 4; I'm not sure.

It surprised me that a few of you have very squeamish husbands about AF; mine doesn't care at all about her (and an orgasm is about the best medicine for cramps I've found). If I can figure out how to do a poll, I might have to do one...

SheenaNash1 · April 2011

If we don't have sex at least once a week DH won't shut up about it. To be fair we have both been healthy for the most part over the hast 5 years with no major surgeries or anything, so we've been able to have sex often. I feel like once kids get into the picture he will have to self-service a bit more lol.

Brodyrox30 · April 2011

Three days...neither of us works away or is gone away for more than a weekend. We've only been married for 9 months, but I went by the whole time we've been living together...4.5 years.

Wow...you're my hero. I put a month, my sex drive pretty much has sucked lately and I've felt very "unpretty" with all this PCOS shenanigans. We finally had sex last night but it was just for DH and when he was finished I hoped in the shower and cried. Ughhh.

brithil · April 2011

I can't wait to show DH this. If we don't have sex every couple days he gives me a hard time. Now he can see how good he really has it.

This! I put about 1 week or so, and when it gets to the "or so" stage DH is pretty antsy. Looks like we have it relatively good though!

ShihtzuMama · April 2011

I answered a week or so, because, aside from m/c, that's the longest we've gone, and that's usually due to AF.

Confession: We're not yet married, so I dont know if my vote really counts Stick out tongue

tigerhearted · April 2011

About a month at a stretch. You can see the gruesome details on my charts.

Hubby has been fighting some chronic pain which is often bad enough to put him out of commission, and if he's not currently hurting, it will flair up when he gets aroused. Sometimes he can work through the pain, sometimes not. Sucks. Hope we get some answers at his next doctor appointment.

juliane2004 · April 2011

I think the longest was about 4 months: the last 2.5 months of pregnancy and the first 1.5 months of postpartum.

trebmal · April 2011

I'm not married yet, so I'm not sure if my vote counts, but we haven't ever gone more than three days.

We've lived together all but one month of our relationship (yeah- we moved fast) and even after the m/c it was only a couple of days.

I am a big fan of it, TTC or not, which FH doesn't complain about, so even without TTC we do it at least every other day if not every day, sometimes more than once a day and I could go more. FH had to explain to me that it doesn't work that way for him all the time though.

FH asked me when we first got together if we could at least do it twice a week and I was floored, I said, JUST twice, dang. I can GUARANTEE I want it more than that. Granted I don't have kids so I don't know what the recovery time will be like after we have our LO, so this could change (hopefully) soon. :O)

Other than the m/c we are both (fairly) young (he's 36 I'm 31) and healthy. I could stand to lose about ten to fifteen pounds but I'm working on it. He has a little girl from his first marriage so there are apparently no issues with him as they just decided one month that they wanted a kid, she stopped BC, they did it, she got pregnant and had a perfect 9 months (annoying-grrrrrrrrrrrrrr) and now they have a perfect 7 year old, soooo here's hoping our 2nd time at this pregnant things goes better than the first.

amerifrau · April 2011

I chose a month too, but it was when we were living in Germany and I came back to the US for a solo visit to my family. Sex would have been difficult with several thousand miles between us Stick out tongue

Awh. That sucks. I'm sorry. PCOS runs in my family, so I know where you're coming from. Sometimes I just give in for him, but usually come around during. I feel so much closer to him if we keep up "with it" on a regular basis.
