After kids the frequency of sex declined - but the quality stayed high. Now that the kids are grown - the sex is much more frequent and hotter than ever before!

Right after it declined and the quality went downhill. We got frustrated and made it right. Now sex is even better than before we had our son.

It's pretty much stayed the same, (not as often as my husband would like, and not as good as I would like).

No option for an increase in frequency? There were other factors involved, such as my going off a medication that had severe sexual side effects, but we actually have more sex now than we did before having our son.

With my son I had severe post partum, and sex was the LAST thing I wanted. Our divorce soon followed. 5 yrs later, in another relationship, I gave birth to my daughter. It was like a switch turned on, I was happier than ever, and now I need a libido supressant practically!! YAY!!! (sorry for the bad spelling, I am exhausted).

I'll be honest..it has sucked as of lately. Our daughter is 19 months and she is in our room because we haven't been able to get a new place yet. We applied for a 3 bedroom and have yet to get it. That is why we are here to try to spice things up again.

I can not answer this poll yet but am due with my first child in March. Recently I have been worrying about how our sex life will be after becoming parents.

I voted that it stayed the same, but really it's gotten much better. I don't think it has much to do with the kids though. Our whole marriage has gotten better because we work at it better.

we just have to be more careful about when we have sex.
