Hi all,

I've noticed with many of my friends and even, my own marriage that having a kid tends to take a toll on romance in a marriage.. you're too tired and exhasted after running around the whole day that romance is the last thing on your mind.So, I decided to make a few changes and keep the spark alive.. Here are a few things I did-
Surprise gifts and notes
Sharing conversation on non-baby stuff
Couple-only dinner nights
And now, losing weight to keep looking good for myself and.. him:-)
Please do share your tips to keep romance alive, post babies..
Thanks!

    

I am married but we don't have any kids yet. My friends have told me about taking care of the kids and trying to find alone time with the hubby. It's important to have a date night with the husband at least two times a month.

I hear that the best way to keep romance alive after children is by having mandatory time that will be just between you and your partner. Schedule that time, and keep to the schedule.

I also hear that having mandatory naps, TV time, or scheduling other activities for your children is a great way to keep your children busy so that you can be with your spouse more often.

The biggest reason parents loose their "groove" is because we have been programmed to think that, now that we are parents and have children, our personal life has to stop. It takes no time to get into that habit and it can take a life time to get out of it.

It is important to understand that in order to be a good parent, you have to be happy, healthy, take time for yourself, get good rest, eat right, etc. You have to come first, then your child. Many think this sounds selfish, but your child relies on you and you need to be at your best, period!

Keep your relationship alive by scheduling alone time with your spouse and even bigger, keep it! You and your spouse should get at least one day or night a week together with no distractions!


Good luck!
