We NEVER have date nights.

Just to dress up in some nicer clothes and talk adult stuff is such a nice break. keiki_mama on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1043065 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 22:10:00 +0000 keiki_mama 1043065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'd love to go on a date (out of the house) once a month but realistically we go out once every two and a half months? PurpleUnicorn on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1043022 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 21:22:26 +0000 PurpleUnicorn 1043022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Ideally I would love a week. Realistically I'd like once a month, twice when I'm done my dissertation.

We don't have family aroun though, so it's tough to schedule time for us to go out. LO is usually in bed around 7:30-7:45 and I like to be in bed around 9pm.

It's expensive enough to go out to dinner, and then to order a pizza is another 20$! betsyboop on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042544 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 17:34:12 +0000 betsyboop 1042544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Ideally, once a week but sometimes DH's schedule doesn't allow for that so it ends up being every other week. Date nights out are new for us since we've had LO, and have been so nice! autumnlove on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042540 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 17:26:19 +0000 autumnlove 1042540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Mrs. Pen: everything adds up! My MIL watched them for 2.5 hours...I picked up Chipotle takeout for her before she came over and she wanted $25 worth of sushi from the restaurant we ate at! Eeeek! Mrs. Pickle on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042529 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 17:15:35 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1042529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We go out weekly. Sometimes twice a week.

It's so expensive though to pay for a sitter, dinner for us and for the sitter/LO, and if we wanted to do a movie as well, add on another $20. That is steep and not extea money we have right now :( So we go very sporadically... Like I can count on one hand all the times we've gone since J was born. For Christmas last year my mom gave is a GC to a restaurant and a night of free babysitting and that was such a great gift! Our date was totally paid for. Our next date will be for my birthday in three weeks.

But I would love to go once a week! LO is a terrible sleeper and my mom doesn't want to watch LO at nighttime... so we are kind of limited to daytime/early evening stuff.

Lo sleeps well and dh & I get a ton of time together (order a movie, takeout or I cook something yummy, so we need the dates less and less. I'd say once a month would be nice but once every 2 months wouldn't be bad either. yin on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042453 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 15:26:37 +0000 yin 1042453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Weekly and it's such a luxury for us since my sister can watch him every Friday night. Once baby comes we probably won't have a chance to have date night for quite some time. We're trying to take advantage of it now.

Not sure what will be realistic once she arrives... maybe fortnightly would be nice :) doodlepoodle on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042437 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 14:57:36 +0000 doodlepoodle 1042437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @chopsuey: 6:30?!?! I don't want that every night because I often don't get home until 5:45 but some nights that extra hour or two would be so nice...

We went last month, but our babysitter bailed on the one we were supposed to have next weekend :( runsyellowlites on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042256 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 11:59:18 +0000 runsyellowlites 1042256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I would really like to be able to go out twice a month. Right now though we haven't had a date in awhile... P decided she didn't want to be anywhere without me so it's posed difficult to get away. Lol It's been a 2-3 months since we really had a date (when Superman came out), I think we're overdue for one! chopsuey on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042251 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 11:52:34 +0000 chopsuey 1042251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Not often! We just like chilling at home together after the kids go to bed. Both are down before 6:30 so we have lots of time together in the evening. lamariniere on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042230 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 11:35:19 +0000 lamariniere 1042230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I would like to do once a week, but it's usually once every other week. We need to pack in a few more before LO2 arrives! lemondrop on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042216 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 11:22:31 +0000 lemondrop 1042216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ A few times a year- not often enough! But we'll open a bottle of wine and watch a movie after bedtime, so better than nothing. We have a few coming up soon thanks to my IL's being around, so we are taking advantage of it!

We usually just do dinner and a movie but its do nice to have just us time. heffalump on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042208 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 11:15:26 +0000 heffalump 1042208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We go once a week. Love it! doodlepoodle on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042206 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 11:13:31 +0000 doodlepoodle 1042206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'd say once a month! We don't usually do anything too fancy though, just dinner and a movie. We don't get much time just the two of us (even after j goes to bed) because I'm either working, we are cleaning or DH is studying...time OUT of the house is important for us. autumnlove on "How often do you want to go on date nights?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-want-to-go-on-date-nights#post-1042198 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 11:07:28 +0000 autumnlove 1042198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I think once every two months is good for me! Maybe every 3 months when I go back to work.
