How to Spice Up Your Love Life: Sneaky Sex!

Sex and parenting don't mix. Which is ironic since it's what got you into this whole parenting mess in the first place. Even if you have the energy to do it, it can be impossible to find the time. But if you're looking to spice up your love life, it can be done! Here's how to sneak in sex when you're a parent: Nab Naptime! You know what they say, "sleep when the baby sleeps." To heck with that! We say "Have sex when the baby sleeps." Seriously, it's one of the only times you can pretty much guarantee to have the time and energy to do it without your kid walking in on you! Get a Room! If you have the cash, rent a motel room for the afternoon, hire a sitter and sneak off for a little marathon love making! (You can even spice things up with a little role-playing, if you're feeling adventurous!) Use TV Time! If you typically use the time your kid is sitting in front of the tube to check email or empty the dishwasher, you might want to rethink things. Pick a show that completely enthralls your kid (so you don't risk her wandering in at an inopportune moment) and use the opportunity to spice up your love life—hop into the sack for a quickie! Have a Nooner! If you've got school-aged kids, arrange an intimate lunch at home with your hubby while they're in class. And let him know what you're serving for dessert (wink, wink).
