Just being so wrapped up in the kids that you start to talk about them during *ahem*

[Gwendolyn's babies]

Ok, maybe this is the wrong place to post this.

Do you ever have the kids are what needs to be done so much on your mind that you bring it up when you and dh * ahem*


I have done this...and let me tell you...not a cool move.
Sometimes though at night when I lie there...just recapping my day what I would of should of done, what I need to get done. That my mind it racing even though my body is a slug. I can't help myself!!

Word of the wise to newlyweds with babies....don't do this

[cjanelles]

I have to physically stop myself from saying stuff like, "Oh, by the way, Willow has a doctor's appointment tomorrow," during, uh, intimacy...

I totally hear you. LOL

[MamaHen2J&J]

LOL I nearly made the mistake of mentioning I was feeling our baby (15wks) right before "we played cards"... It would have totally killed the mood!

[Imogen]

Yeah, I have done that. It didn't kill the mood, nothing kills Ste's mood

I think this is a pretty common occurrence for many parents actually.

Anyone remember the movie "Parenthood" from the '80s with Steve Martin? There was a great example of this very situation happening to the main couple in the movie.

I think it's just really hard sometimes to turn off the "mommy" or "daddy" mode, even long enough to DTD.

[IntuitiveJamie]

Yes I have done it. Alot. Oops.

[Mommy2Haley]

I have done that too many times to count!! I get bored easily and my mind wanders. I'm on a med that kills my drive so I know DTD won't end in anything explosive for me. So I daydream ...

Moved to Parenting Issues as it's not a topic specific to SAHMing

[sarahbeara87]

Ya its horrible I'll just start thinking of things i need to tell him and then im like what are you doing get your mind back on the task at hand lol

[Flower of Bliss]

Guilty I just did that last night... or actually, I think DH started it Fortunately, it was more during foreplay than during actually DTD

[kblackstone444]

Me, too. I start to think of things I need to tell him (this is NOT to say I'm not enjoying myself, just that I'm so used to multitasking. ), and then I have to stop myself from telling my Hubby whatever's on my mind at the moment. And then, sometimes, I remind myself over and over to tell him when we're done, after the afterglow wears off, but not too soon that I'm being rude and before he falls asleep.

Yep, that's me too.
I still feel guilty...I have gotten, "just forget about that for the moment".
geez, what a nerd I am.
