We never thought that would happen to us as everything we did was so unbelievable sensual. How and why would it stop just because you have kids?<\/p>\n<p>Even with 3 children our sex life is still as good as it was before children. Sure we had to work out our special alone time but it was worth it.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.femplay.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/children.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-604 alignright\" alt=\"children\" src=\"https:\/\/www.femplay.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/children-300x205.jpg\" width=\"224\" height=\"154\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.femplay.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/children-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.femplay.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/children-1024x700.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.femplay.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/children-624x426.jpg 624w, https:\/\/www.femplay.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/children.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When the kids started school and sports and I went back to work, life became a lot busier.<\/p>\n<p>Then suddenly it hit us, it was a slow process and neither of us saw it coming until one day we realised that it had been a few months since we had made love.<\/p>\n<p>It was with this realisation that we needed to do something about it and quickly.<\/p>\n<p>We started to talk and worked out that we obviously still loved each other and that we do still feel sexually attracted to each other.<\/p>\n<p>Then it came to us &#8211; with work, the kids and all their extra activities we were exhausted.<\/p>\n<p>We hadn\u2019t been looking after ourselves. Our physical, mental, emotional and sexual health was in such bad shape that we were too tired to even think about making love when it was bedtime. All we thought about was sleep.<\/p>\n<p>Neither of us is overweight but we still had to change how we ate. Including more iron, fibre<a href=\"https:\/\/www.femplay.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/hand-holiday.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-606 alignright\" alt=\"hand holiday\" src=\"https:\/\/www.femplay.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/hand-holiday.jpg\" width=\"215\" height=\"142\" \/><\/a> and water. We also included the kids with going for a walk after dinner instead of just sitting in front of the TV.<\/p>\n<p>This has helped us as a family as the kids are really enjoying it and my husband and I are starting to feel more connected again.<\/p>\n<p>We both started to feel better with each other and ourselves and now the bedroom fun has started happening again.<\/p>\n<p>At first it was once a week and after a month we were at 2-3 times a week.<\/p>\n<p>With working on our health and the everyday activities of a busy family life we were able to bring back the spark.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s funny how we don\u2019t think how important our sexual health is until it becomes an issue. We will never let it get back to the way it was as we have realised how much happier we arewhen everything is all balanced out.<\/p>\n<p>So I must implore for everyone to look at his or her complete health. Mental, physical, emotional and of course sexual health. And make sure you look after all of it.<\/p>\n<p>To be honest it really doesn\u2019t take that much work, you just have to know that it is important and your life will improve.<\/p>\n<p>Thank You,<\/p>\n<p>Kind Regards,<\/p>\n<p>Lucinda<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of our wonderful customers asked if she could share her story with us about her marriage and how it was changing in a way she didn&#8217;t want and how they turned it around to bring their love back, My husband and I had always had so much passion for each other.
