[quote=Anonymous]There are a lot of posts like this, and then the DHs can't understand why the DWs don't want to be intimate.   :roll:

We went through the same thing.  This lasted for about four years.  It finally came to a head when confronted with some decisions we had to make about something. We argued for a few days, and DH finally realized that I also gave up a lot after the kids arrived.  Prior to this, he only saw what he had to give up and all the effort he was making that he thought I didn't appreciate.   But, and I have mentioned this before, I think a lot of us women have a tendency to want things done is a very specific way regarding raising our kids, and get upset if the DH doesn't live up to that.   It took me a while to realize that my DH doesn't have the same standards of cleanliness, or what is appropriate for kids to wear, etc.. I had to let go of some of that.  But, DH also had to realize that I was doing a lot more and the default parent. We made some life changes, and all are much happier.
