Do people actually have sex every day?

Following the BJ thread, I was stunned to learn how often others have sex.

I'm pretty randy at the moment, being pregnant, and DH is lucky to be getting it 2-3 times a week. Normally, probably once. (When Dd was a baby, much less).

Are these people saying they do it most days really young, in new relationships, or childless? Or do I just have a very low sex drive? I honestly didn't realise poor DH's shortfall.

(btw. aged 29, together for 8 years, 1 DD, pregnant - I feel these details are probably important in working it all out)

Late 20s, new relationship, no kids, 1-3 times a day.

LoopyLoopsPoopaScoop · 10/02/2011 17:39

:) New as in less than 6 months? That's understandable!

On holiday yes, at least once, more often twice a day, in normal day to day life, no, more like 2/3 times a week, clustered around weekends, due to being knackered in the week.

We're both pushing 50, together for 28 years, no kids at home.

It was far, far less frequent in our thirties, I was ruled by my hormones/PMT and it was probably only a couple of times a month, around ovulation.

If we weren't so knackered, sex every day would be lovely, we go for quality over quantity though, less than half an hour isn't sex, it's a quickie imho.

Mal - it's good to hear there are better days to come :)

QueenStromba · 10/02/2011 17:45

2-3 months (we're not sure when to count it from). We both have really high sex drives - he's the first man I've been with that can keep up with me!

TrinityMotherOfRhinos · 10/02/2011 17:47

yes Blush

ThePosieParker · 10/02/2011 17:48

Really interesting malificence, mine is an all time low. But up to baby number four we were a nearly everyday couple....baby number four arrived when I was 34 and my libido has taken a nose dive.

expatinscotland · 10/02/2011 17:48

I had a boyfriend who was a 2+/day person.

God, he was fucking boring.

ThePosieParker · 10/02/2011 17:48

Fab news, Trinity [grin}

We're at it like rabbits too Wink At least every day, sometimes 2-3 times, depending on what the days held.

I'm 33, he's 34. Been together two years. Have a six year old, a nearly 3 year old and a 13 months old. Going for another!!
