This is interesting... This girl decided to commit to having sex everyday for an entire year. And they weren't TTC either!

Oh barf! I can hardly last going everyday the week before ovulation and the week after and my sex drive is pretty healthy.

You know.... I think its a good idea. DH and I have really struggled with our sex life post-baby and I feel like their reasons are a lot like ours (ie. my body issues).
Maybe Ill show that to DH.

@LindsayInNY: you can still do other stuff during AF or hit the showers
I would so do this!

@Mrs. Pen: That was my first thought but the article implied actual sex (vs. oral, anal, whatever other kind there might be!). I suppose shower? Maybe I should comment and ask the blogger, LOL! I have a friend who had a "yuck blanket" for that time (I kid you not...)

What a great share!!!! At this point I don't think I could commit to such a thing but that level of intimacy (not just the sex part) is nice to have & it makes me happy that it seems the couple was able to obtain that (or start)... Sure that wasn't what they were expecting at the beginning of the journey!

He'll I'd do it if it meant I could get DH to tell me what he finds hot about me like his last email. I guess that means its confidence for me too?

Ok, so when I first opened this thread I was snorting. But after reading it it doesn't seem so outlandish. I enjoy sex, but I have a lot of post-baby body issues...

@loveisstrange: I read in article in glamour years ago written by a guy who agreed with his wife to have sex every day for a month and their relationship really benefitted from it. I don't think it's a bad idea either.

cute read!
the thought of sex every day for a year makes me tired.

@Mrs. Polish: A month is do-able... A whole year though?! I'm exhausted just thinking about it!
blogger / nectarine / 2010 posts
@LindsayInNY: I'm considering suggesting the month. A year is...well, a year.

@LindsayInNY: a yuck blanket? Haha, that is commitment! Thanks for sharing this post, really a wonderful idea, though I'd lean towards @Mrs. Polish: a month sounds reasonable

I can't get DH to do every other day!! I'd have to get a new husband for this to work.

This is hilarious! I didn't read the article though. How old is this girl? Why do I feel like this is something only a girl in her 20s would do? Hi, I'm 30 and no way would I do actual sex every day of the year.

I didn't read this yet but I know I wouldn't be able to do this! Maybe once a week! Lol. Too tiring and honestly, I can see it getting really painful lol. Every day?! Eek.
blogger / nectarine / 2010 posts
@anonysquire: it must have made quite an impression on both of us to still remember it! Wow.

I don't even want to read the article cause whatever awesome benefit there is, I just could not/would not/DH not even interested in a year of sex! Lol too fat, too tired, too old

Oh man, I would never. I'd hate to push myself to do it when I didn't feel like it. We got really lucky - our sex life has been amazing post baby. But I've gone through several periods (hormonal swings, I assume) where I just couldn't stand the thought of it. Pushing through that would have made for some really negative associations, I think.
Now, if you wanted to call it a 'daily intimacy challenge', where it was sex (any kind) or just some really focused time spent together, I'd be all for that. We actually try to do that already - we *always* go to bed together, even if one of us gets up after a little while. I really love that idea.

I see the appeal of nightly intimacy ... My vagina hurts thinking of sex everyday, but I like the idea of getting naked, talking, cuddling, sex a few times a week.

I doubt even my DH, who has a pretty high sex drive, would want to commit to having sex everyday lol.

@LindsayInNY: looks like she avoided it during af...in the comments. She put that under medical or logistical issue.

@Vegmama: Lol. I agree... ouchie!
But I'd be down with the other forms of intimacy more often.

@Mrs. Polish: 1 month sounds like something I could agree with. A year is a long time.
I like the reasoning behind it but it's not really... I don't know. I think we could get to the same (emotional) place with every Monday for a year or every day for a month or two.

I saw this couple on the today show who did sex for 100 days straight. I thought THAT was a lot.
W/ my husband's work schedule every day is just not possible. However, I do think that the idea is great and we need to light the spark. I like the idea of 30 days of intimacy. It's so easy to think "I'm tired" or "baby is sick" or "I have to work tomorrow."
