No sex after having kids.

Mr Benevolent · 06-08-2009 11:45am #1

The amount of couples who have mentioned this to me is unnerving. So I'm asking AHers the same question. Have you had less sex (with the same person) since your kids were born?

Well you usually have to give her a couple of days to recover.

Just make sure that the doctor puts an extra stitch or two down there for your pleasure.

Id rather no kids after having sex..

That's pretty much the gist of it I'm getting OP. Marriage+kids = no more regular sex.

It's assumed husbands just put up with it.

E: I will never get married.

Have four kids. Still very active.
Poll should include "more than once a week".

I would imagine it losses it's appeal once it becomes like throwing a javelin down O'Connell St.

From what I’ve heard the correct analogy you should be using is throwing a sausage down O'Connell St.

Depends on the angle

Talk about conclusive results! It seems about 1% of the boards population has kids lol

Turd Ferguson · 06-08-2009 1:07pm

After I've had kids I usually have a little nap and then I'm ready for sex again

OP, if your looking for this thread to become a mature conversation id probobly ask it to be transfered to personal issues or somewhere else.

Serious answer:

After the first one arrived we went into a tailspin of barely coping with life so sex got pushed down the agenda and the first year was pretty much celibate. After we got our act together things got back to more or less where they were (marginally better than before if anything). A brief hiatus for the difficult second pregnancy aside things have been normal since. The norm from talking to other parents seems to be that when the kids are young things suffer but as they get older it usually picks up again.

AH answer:

Sure, she's exhausted now with the childer so there's lots of sneaky sex when she's asleep which keeps me going :pac:

No sex after having kids.

How much less sex have you had since your kid(s) were born? 16 votes
