How often do you have sex?

[boobiebaps]

I'm in my late twenties, have DCS and very little sex with DH. How much should I be settling for? We have it around once every 3 weeks. We have it and then I crave it more; DH seems then to be satisfied, for sometimes a whole month! I feel I'm young and fertile, I want to develop sexually and express it more, I really enjoy sex and the closeness it creates between DH and I. What should I expect here? How often do you do it and how old are you?

My cycles aren't great so sometimes not for a while and sometimes 2-3 times a week. It's about what works for each couple surely.

mid thirties, 2 children, both work

married 7 years, 3 kids, husband unemployed, no money stress, we havent had sex in 3 months. Dont want it.

Mid-40's & DH late-50's.
2nd marriage, been together just over 5 years.
My kids who live at home with us are now 11 & 14.
Pre DH's cancer diagnosis last year between 2-4 times a week, probably 12-14 a month on average.
I miss it, along with most other things from before he was ill.

Three or four times a week. I'm late thirties, he's early forties and we've been together yonks. We have two teenagers and a 5yo.

Until we split up a couple of weeks ago we'd usually have sex around 3 times a week.
Both 48

At least once a day, often twice (morning and evening), occasionally 3-4 times in one day if we're really in the mood - but we've only been living together for 9 months, and don't have any DCs living with us. I imagine that frequency may reduce once we have kids together!

There's no real set routine for us. I aim for once a week at the least but sometimes we can go a month. Dh would have it 3x a day if it was just up to him. I rarely crave it.

Sounds like you need to find a middle ground of what works for you both.

4 times a week....New partner and we're both in our 50's. We can't get enough of each other. I'm pretty sure it'll settle down to less soon. I'm always tired 😂

Oh and I usually plan it.

Age 38 (him 40) 2-3 times a day normally, once when the kids have gone to bed on his contact days. We don't watch TV...

Mid 50s, together 30 years, teenage children. 3-4 times a week, often at odd times as I'm uncomfortable if they are around. DH would do it more often than me given the chance!

Both mid 40,s...DSD at uni...been together 10 years.... 2/3 times a week on average...certainly no " pre- planning"....both have similar sex drives..

Married 30 years. Once a week sometimes more sometimes less.

V nearly 40, lived with DH for 10 years, 3 kids. Never really plan it. Average about twice a week but anything from 1 to 4 times a week not unusual. Apart from the six weeks after birth of kids, have never gone more than a couple of weeks without it as generally we both really want it.

Late 30s, 2 or 3 times a week. To be honest, its usually Fri/Sat/Sun...nice little middle aged routine we have going on

We'd both like it more, but tiredness from work/DC means we rarely manage it.

Late 30s both of us, primary age DCs. Twice a year. Don't know why though!

I wish I had more of a sex drive. :( I rarely really want it and it can hurt when we get around to it as DH isn't a little fella. DH would be happy to be at it 3/4 times a week easy but I'm usually too tired or would rather just cuddle.

That said I'm pregnant at the mo and had low level nausea throughout the first trimester which really put me off. 2nd trimester has been better - the few times we've done anything the extra sensitivity has been very nice! - but I've never been highly sexed and don't really mind if I go ages without it. I do worry about how that makes DH feel and I try to get in the mindset more, but daily stresses lately haven't helped (work related on both sides). I doubt much will change when baby #1 comes along ...

Early 50's, about 2 or 3 times a week. Sometimes spend entire an Saturday in bed if the kids aren't about.

I'm glad I'm not the only one! I hope I'm still the same in 10 years too :)

Mid 40s and early 50s, probably twice a week in average. DH would be up for it every day if he could. Been together 25 years, 2 older teenagers, one of whom is away at uni so don't need to worry about unwelcome guests in the bed anymore!

I so wish I could spend a whole day in bed having sex! Last night I pleasured myself whilst he lay next to me... awake. Him Knowing full well what I was doing. Feel so rejected and crap.

An average of 3-4 times a week. All at weekends. We pack a lot in

I'm 40 and with ex husband it was probably once a month and we'd been together 20 years. With boyfriend of 4 months, probably 3/4 times a week, whenever we see each other - I'd be quite happy with daily though I have a teenager though, which takes a lot less of my energy than having little ones.

No DCs. Hardly ever. I'm on very strong anti-depressants due to bipolar disorder and I have no sex drive at all now

I'm pretty sure you are getting answers from people who have sex more often
