My wife and I just welcomed our second child a month or so ago. It was amazing and incredible and we are both incredibly happy… but also incredibly tired. The feedings at night, long hours spent rocking, plus caring for our toddler is all incredibly exhausting and we are both just thankful to get a few hours sleep.
But, just because we were tired didn’t mean we aren’t horny. Plus, always caring for one of two children mean we rarely have time alone. We went from having sex every day, or every other day, when she was pregnant to nothing at all. It was getting to both of us, and the restriction on penetration for 6 weeks really ground our gears. I cannot tell you how many times we would be going down on each other, both of us full of need and lust, only to be interrupted from the other room by a cry from one or both children, even at night. It was like a constant state of blue balls. It didn’t help that my work schedule was constantly changing, meaning it was hard to get time for both of us nailed down.
