SPR- how often do you DTD now that you have DC?

Dh & I were discussing this last night & he was saying 3-4 times a week should be ideal. Lately, we are lucky if we get it in 1 time a week. It falls a little on me bc frankly, I'm exhausted. I'm a SAHM of two extremely active toddlers who start their day at 430am. By the time they are both in bed, 8-815, I just want to finish up my chores & go to bed. I honestly don't have the drive I use to.

So I'm curious to others take.

Re: SPR- how often do you DTD now that you have DC?

I have 3 kids, ages 11, 5, and 2.5. When the littlest was under a year, it was MAYBE once a week.

Now we do much better... 3 times a week, average. That's mostly on the weekends though!!!

I have to say, now it's not the little ones who are keeping us from it, it's the older DS!!! You never know when he's going to come downstairs for water, bathroom, etc, and he goes to bed later... it's a PITA!

ETA: if it were up to DH, it would be somewhere around 10-14 times a week. We compromise

We probably average once a week. We've done it more often, and we've also gone longer. My ideal would probably be more like twice a week. But life just gets in the way sometimes.

Re: SPR- how often do you DTD now that you have DC?

Ummm we are lucky if its once a week. Dh works from 430pm-630am and sleeps till 3 plus we have a 2.5 year old and a 6 months old and I'm in school sooo maybe once every 2 weeks.

Re: SPR- how often do you DTD now that you have DC?

Not much.
We have opposite schedules and not a lot of time together.
Plus, I'm exhausted, he's exhausted and my desire is next to nothing lately

Re: SPR- how often do you DTD now that you have DC?

We're lucky if we get it once a week. My guess would be 2-3 times per month.

DH would love it every day, a few time, but i have no drive or energy for it anymore. With 3 kids, its difficult because when we get the little ones down my older one is always awake.

Re: SPR- how often do you DTD now that you have DC?

rarely overwhelming schedules. DH is excited that we are going to be TTC again

Re: SPR- how often do you DTD now that you have DC?

Once a week...if lucky!

Laila is only 8 weeks, but so far it's only been once a week since we were cleared to DTD :(

We are exhausted..

Re: SPR- how often do you DTD now that you have DC?

We have 3 kids age 5, 4 and 7 months. We squeeze it in 2-4 times a week usually. Every once in a while we will skip a week though.

Re: SPR- how often do you DTD now that you have DC?

We have newborn twins so not nearly as much as we would both want 1 or 2 times a week on average.

Re: SPR- how often do you DTD now that you have DC?

1-2x a week at most. DS goes to bed at 7pm and by 10pm we are just exhausted. If doesnt happen in between then its more than likely not happening that night haha!
