We cant do it all,try your best.

Take short cuts,look at what is most important.
For example-I dont iron a thing unless i have too!

notasheep · 16/03/2006 22:40

No sex here though!

nulnulcat · 16/03/2006 23:11

erm im not superwoman but i manage to keep my house clean i am obsessional and i iron everything, bring up dd, work full time and for 18 months did all this as a single mum now have dp and still manage all of the above and have a great sex life it is possible

nulnulcat · 16/03/2006 23:11

should add dd is in bed by 7 every night and doesnt get up til 830 so that helps!

SHHHH · 17/03/2006 15:46

nulnulcat, I am the same as you but on the sex front I am knackered come dd's bedtime at 7pm..! I do try and have the best intentions but at 2pm when dd is knapping dh is at work! I suppose it's life as a mother, I just hope the summer makes me feel like I have more energy.

Oh well, off tonight for our 1st meal together since dd was born 10 mths ago..maybe my batteries could be recharged.My "body" batteries I mean Wink..!!!

My two sleep well now but I'm still not that interested Sad. When we go to bed I really would rather read a book, it's the only me time I get so can't be bothered with yet another pair of hands pawing at me

Hi pagan, i am the same, most of the time i can't stand it. I find him too strong. Maybe I have changeed too much after the 2 kids and i am sick of my body being consently touched all day and night! Sometimes we want too be left alone. I get press from him as well. what can I do? He makes me feel uncomfortable sometimes. Is it me?

notasheep · 17/03/2006 20:53

Dp is away til Monday so having a lovely peaceful time.hate all that pestering for a shag.

Tonight i can happily read my book and have a good nights sleep for a change.

I am so glad to hear from both of you! I thought it was me and maybe I am getting old and boring. I know we need to spend time together away from the kids but its aways comes down to sex at the end of the day! What is the big deal! I do love him, But the press gets me down! Love is hard work? and being a mum! and on top of all that my, single, friends are consently asking me when I am going too get a JOB! a really one.
