So, if you’re being banished to the spare room, that’s going to cut down the opportunities significantly. When you have young children and life is busy and sometimes stressful, having a good sex life is a lot about having the opportunity to actually have sex. If you consistently do this, eventually it’ll work. It’s pretty normal for young children to wake up at night and want to get into your bed, but you have to keep putting them back! If it’s causing stress taking her back to her own bed straightaway because she cries, wait until she falls asleep, then carry her back, so she wakes up in her own room in the morning. I know letting your daughter fall asleep again in your bed seems like the easiest option at the time when you’re tired, but you really are making a rod for your own back with this one. However, I’m exhausted from sleeping on a bad mattress and, more importantly, our sex life is virtually non-existent. My wife doesn’t see anything wrong in it and says that our daughter just needs comfort at the moment.
My problem is, my wife lets our daughter sleep in our bed at night, which means I usually get out and go to the spare room.Īt first it was just the occasional night when our daughter woke up and came in, but now it’s become pretty much every night.
My wife and I are in our 30s and have one daughter, who’s recently turned two.
