Morning! Bugs and I are about to go grocery shopping, and to Dunkin' -- where I plan to go every morning this weekend. I'll be helping my old boss out at the huge RV show this weekend, and I'll need all the coffee there is.

Morning! This week is draaaaaaagging. Only Thursday?! Bleh. My feeling better was short-lived. I want ALL the naps.
My parents are coming to town tomorrow. I'm so excited for them to see my toddler. He's so much fun now and was in such a crappy mood the last time they saw him.

My kids are acting like toast is having cake for breakfast. My oldest asked for toast and oranges. One twin asked for lucky charms the other pancakes. They are swarming my oldest for his toast like its the best thing ever.

Good morning. So tired.
Question. Have you ladies been keeping up with ST with your Hs since getting pregnant? I told H when we were TTC that I would make sure it was different this time (averaged about once a month when I was pregnant with DD until 3rd tri when it totally stopped) but so far it's the same. I'm just so tired after putting DD down that I just can't find the interest or energy. Please tell me I'm not alone.

You're not alone. Ours has seriously declined. But it's because I'm so tired I go to bed at 9 while he's still downstairs watching tv. I think 2nd tri it will hopefully pick up when I have more energy.

Exactly! I told DH a few nights ago when he asked if I wanted to that really he needs to ask me that question at like 8:30, 9 PM at the absolute latest. Last night he asked me at 9:03 and I was like dude, it's past my bedtime! Ugh. Not that I'm literally watching the clock or something like that, I just know I hit the wall around that time.

we haven't in over a month. When I was pregnant with DS, we averaged once a week and I never got the drive back. It didn't come back after pregnancy either. I actually have some of a drive now but he's not allowed to touch until his HFM has full cleared

I have 0 drive. To the point where pushing it or even the idea of it is really upsetting to me. It was like this last pregnancy and during breastfeeding. I hate it and feel really bad about it.

Not alone. I think we've done it once since I found out I was pregnant. Our ST has declined since we got married and TTC anyways so it's not really a big deal for us.

Yea mine's pretty much crap right now. But mine's pretty much always crap lol. Except when I was pregnant last time. DH keeps getting super hopeful it'll come back
They put a bombers burrito bar in at work, minus the bar portion. I grabbed a burrito bowl for lunch, though they made it a burrito anyway... I'm currently regretting devouring the whole thing.. My H decided that one tiny piece of steak was acceptable for lunch. 🙄

Yum! We were talking about Moe's at work today because free queso.
I want all the meat!! Haha Like I literally made ground turkey the other night & devoured it with ketchup. Then I was super upset that I didn't get a cold cut sandwich before class tuesday. And last night. I was devouring the beef strips for the stir fry waiting on the veggies to cook.
At first sex was off the table because the progesterone was making me so sensitive. For the past couple of weeks it's been 1-2 a week but we've definitely switched it to mornings. At night I am just way too exhausted.

You definitely aren't alone, but I think what really matters is that everyone feels like their needs are important and prioritized when possible. Like maybe P in V isn't on the table for a while, but there's more to sex than that. And there's more to intimacy than sex, and lots of different ways to make our partners feel valued. And sometimes just saying "you're sexy and and I love you and I'm looking forward to being with you just as soon as we both have the time and energy" makes a world of difference for us. I know that life is going to be very challenging for a while when we have a baby and a toddler and we're both trying very hard to make sure we don't go into that difficult time already feeling neglected. But it's hard, and lots of days I feel like a shit partner and a shit parent. Hope you start getting some more energy soon!
