I feel like my husband and I have lost some excitement?

We have only been married for a little over a year. And I feel like since we have done/see everything it seems like we have lost some excitement. And we have a 3 month old daughter so it seems like we are taking care of her all night and we dont have time for eachother. When we do have time we are tired.. Any sugguestions on how to spice things up?I feel like my husband and I have lost some excitement?
This is VERY common. Your both worn out trying to keep up with the little one and everything else that is going on. Once she starts sleeping all night it will get easier. In the mean time try to locate a baby sitter and take a night to go out to dinner and a movie. A good way to find a sitter is to ask other friends with kids. Sometimes you can set up an agreement to keep their kids for a night in exchange for them taking yours for a night. Or they may know of a good sitter they would recommend.


I'd recommend you stick to a nice dinner and a movie over going to a nightclub. You both need some time to relax and it is very difficult to relax in a nightclub. This is an important period in your marriage. How you handle the stress with each other will play an important part in how you treat the marriage later.


Finally you both need to communicate your needs and desires without judging the other. I've had several friends tell me that they have great communication only to have the spouse complain that they never talk. Good communications, compromise to fulfill each others needs and compassion toward each other is what make it all work. Good luck!I feel like my husband and I have lost some excitement?
I think the other answers are right on, you both need to agree upon a date night something equal to that where you set time aside for both of you to get the fire back. Your daughter will be needing time for a long time, so you need another excuse. If you can't do a date night then you need to find some erotic or sexual imagination to take over. Perhaps a change in love making technique, maybe include some sexual aids, toys etc to add a spark. Good Luck
Do you have a lot of support and help with your child. Maybe your mum or his mum could take over for a night looking after your baby. I'm surei t would bring them much pleasure and in turn give you time to be alone and relax... Go to dinner movie and back home for some loving...





Your hormones might be all over the place too so if you are not feeling very sexy then maybe see a doctor.... But if you are just tired try to get some extra rest during the day when baby sleeps etc .. You have to work at it






once a week do a ';date night'; in the privacy of your bedroom. light some candles and have some drinks, alcohol or non, doesnt' matter, and put in a good movie. close the door, and reconnect with each other. it gets easier as the baby gets older but it;s important to reconnect with each other often.
well tell ur family 2 look after her for around 2 hours and bring the baby back from ur family house...am sure you will enjoy the time together i know how it is with a baby around am sure your family will enjoy it with the baby around and u and ur partner will have a good time together..good luck....
have grandma take the baby for a night. make a special for you and your hubby.
Make an effort to simply smile more. Good things will come naturally.
