We have lots of small children and dh and I have barely looked at one another for way too long. I actually feel very self-conscious now after the kids. Feel frumpy and fat and about a million miles away from the sex god I was (in my head) a decade ago.
But I think it is important we connect again physically. Practically this is tough because we don't have family nearby who could help out with babysitting and the youngest, 16-months, is still shit at the sleep thing.
We need to get kids down early and indulge in some fun. But where to start? Any sexy movies you would suggest? Not anything too out there, just something that might help us get in the mood?
We are both working flat out and holding down stressful jobs as well as the usual issues involved in coping with three little children. But we have forgotten what it is like to enjoy one another and I feel as though our marriage is suffering because of it.
How did you all manage romance and marriage with kids?
