[quote=Anonymous]When my youngest was 1 we were in a rough patch (she did not sleep, had reflux) and we resolved to every night at 6:30 putting our phones up. It was so easy to sit on the couch and zone out on them and it wasn't helping. If they rang we would answer (if we felt like it) but no other use. That helped us actually spend the time together and talk. We got a babysitter. Even if only once a month, that night gave us something to look forward to. We tried to keep sex going. The goal is at least every other night. Sometimes we do two in a row and then take 1-2 nights off. But it has to be prioritized or it's so easy to say you're too tired to do it. We took nightly baths together. We have a huge tub so that worked, but it was a way to spend a few minutes alone with each other between kids' bedtime and getting into bed. We still do it 3-4 times a week, easily. Sleep naked if you don't mind it. [/quote]
