If I havent done anything in the house the whole week, then by the time weve got up on a Saturday, we wont have finished doing the shopping and cleaning/tidying, washing etc til early afternoon if we chose to do it then (because its unlikely we'll have got up and dressed before 10 or 11 or so, so I would never be awake for 16-17 hours!).

And sometimes at the moment but not forever, DH has to work Sat mornings. Then once he comes back Ill do the shopping while he cleans or relaxes or whatever. Today in the afternoon we spent an hour or so out in the garden because the lawns needing mowing and all the flower beds tidying up. Then he went back to work for a bit.

Work wise we dont actually spend most of our time at work, but due to the nature of the job my partner works in the mornings and evenings, and has time off in the day where I am at work. So our time off just doesnt always match up. But thats fine as it gives us time to see our friends etc.

When do you shop then if you dont do it at the weekends? The last thing I would want to do after work is trawl round a supermarket.

I suppose its all about your personal priorities in your life, especially as you say you dont want to have kids because of the negative effect on your sex life. Wed much rather have a family together and enjoy everything that comes with that, rather than just have sex 3 times a day.

I guess also if we were to have had sex before we got up in the morning, lets just say my DH is larger than the average and there is no way he would be allowed back for more that day! :rotfl:

I'm fairly sure it was you (sorry if I'm wrong) who said a few posts back that your having more sex now your ttc. If that's the case then surely it's not a time issue if you now put some time aside for it. Not trying to be funny with you here but my point is any couple can put aside a little time every few days for some sexual time.

It just seems people have different priorities within their relationship. Yours seems to be your children which clearly works for you and that's a good thing. I clearly have different priorities. Sex is actually quite low down the priority list for me but I still consider it an important part of a relationship.

For the record the lack of sex isn't the only reason we don't want children, that would be crazy on it's own but it's certainly an entry into the 'against' box.

Chronic Fatigue as part of fibromyalgia. I literally can't miss sleep, because if I push myself, it doesn't matter what I'm doing, I'll fall asleep. Used to be easy to compensate for because I could have lie ins or go to bed really early the night before but now I', working full time I don't have so much wiggle room.
