The article explores how sexual intimacy evolves for couples over time, highlighting the challenges faced after marriage and the arrival of children. Through interviews with 11 couples married for several years, it reveals that while factors such as busy schedules and parenting can reduce the frequency of sex, many couples still find ways to connect romantically. Couples share their experiences, from infrequent encounters to strategies for maintaining intimacy, emphasizing that although the passion may change, the desire to keep romance alive remains important.
Since we've had our second child, who is 4 months old and still sleeps in our room, it's maybe every couple of months? Definitely missing the connection sex brings to our marriage.
We do it when the kiddo's asleep and in a different room (we co-sleep). We're planning to make the kid sleep in his own room next year.
