newborn in parents room?

[kristy J]

ok so how do i put this...........How do you have pashionate (sp?) sex with baby in the room? sorry for TMI.. I know your in the clear for the first 6-8 weeks but what about after that. I would be so worried about waking baby up. or even a toddler; like some people have in their room/bed. A GF i have known for years told me it can be weeks between sex because her DS sleeps in their bed. it affects her relationship with DF.

I still think mum and dad's bedroom should be a private escape.
don't get me wrong Isaac comes into out bed but only after 6am for a morning cuddle.

Ok well i have done two different things.

With DS1 he slept in our room in his cot till he moved into a big bed and about 18 months. It was really hard to actually get him to stay in his own bed in his own room. So i personally would not do that again. ( ps with DTD well let me just say there are more rooms to our house then just the bed room lol)

With DS2 he was in a bassinet in our room until he moved into his cot at about 3 or 4 months old i can't really remember. It was a really east transition and iwill be doing this again with this baby.

I don't think that i could but the baby straight into their own room. I feel more comfortable having them in my room for the first few months.

I think that it is a personal choice what you do do just do whatever works for you.

Kirsty: I hear what you are saying! lol I think it can be done especially with a younger bubba, a toddler may be more difficult...but then again, *someof us* (ahem) STILL dont have have a goddamned libido...

(AND WE MAY JUST LIKE IT BACK NOW THANKS!!!)

lol sorry.

So it hasnt been an issue for us, as you can see.

Remember I said all 3 of my kids have & or still are cosleeping in my bed. I am pregnant with # 4.
The bed room isn' t the only place & really its a bit boring if it is.

who says you only have to have sex in your bed and at night?
believe me, there are plenty of ways/places/times to work around it.
