What's the longest you have not had sex in a relationship and it's survived?

[IcouldstillbeJoseph]

DH and I haven't had sex for 18 months.
A terrible second pregnancy followed by a terrible sleeping baby have contributed a lot but since DC1 was born things had really dwindled anyway.

I'm breastfeeding and both DH and I find this off putting to sex. I know that may seem odd to others but it's just how it is for me. I'm not willing to stop BF to have sex, even though DD is 10months - and DH wouldn't want me to stop for that reason either, I'm sure.

Anyway, I'm very happily married and DH seems happy too. We have sort of accepted that when life moves through the stressful young-children bit we will resume our romantic lives together. I have no reason to suspect he is cheating on me although I know I'd probably be last to know

I just wondered if others had been through this and it did turn out ok. It nags at me that time is ticking on although I have no sex drive when breastfeeding either so I'm not frustrated, iyswim.

Just for background we've been together 10 years. DS is 2, DD is 10mo

6 months with first baby, 8 with second. Both tough pregnancies (SPD) and DC bf until aged 2.7 and 2.10 years. Things didn't get back to our normal in terms of frequency and lack of exhaustion until DD2 was about 3.5 but we made the occasional effort. Now in our mid/late 40s and back to several times a week, and never been happier (although having teens in the house is even more of a challenge than having tinies! They stay up late, and have big ears.)
