iVillage Gift Basket

As part of the relaunch of their Pregnancy & Parenting site, iVillage recently asked its readers to complete a Married Sex survey. Among the key findings were these interesting results:

  • 63% of married women said they would prefer to catch up on an extra hour of sleep, watch a movie or read a book than have sex with their spouse
  • 31% of women reported that they had a better sex life before marriage
  • 14% of women have participated in sexting, while 17% have sent flirty email messages
  • 44% of women said the quality of their sex life has not changed since having kids
  • 23% of women have sex 1 to 3 times a month

    We get the grandparents to watch our kids every Superbowl weekend so we can go to the coast kid free! It is a set date every year.

  3. Julie

    Find a family member/friend to babysit and stay it. It’s free and there are no interruptions. If you can’t break out of your nightly routine of computer/tv, GO OUT!

  8. Denise

    Start a fantasy box. Each of you put in 6 (or more) fantasies or fun things you want to try (get a hotel for a “mini” vaca, role play, etc.) and pull one each month (or more if you added more).

  11. Rick

    One day each month for the couple to do what one person wants, as long as they are together. And another to do what the other wants.

  12. George

    Alone time for everyone. – Absence makes the hear grown fonder and gives you time for yourself.

  13. Trish Wuerfele

    Send the kids to a friends or grandparents at least once a month perferably twice a month and have a night out then come home to a quiet home to spend some quality time together with out the kids needing you.

    I am a facebook fan and a RSS subscriber

  16. Michelle

    Date night an absolute must. Even just once a month make time for each other without the kids.

  17. Ladytink_534

    Make sure you express affection daily and set aside time for just the two of you.

  21. Karen

    Weekly date nights where you don’t talk about work or the kids and have fun together and enjoy each other’s company.

  29. Cathy

    Every couple of months my in-laws will do an overnight “house swap” with us. We get away from the kids, but it doesn’t cost anything!
