Parenthood, couple and sexuality: the great balancing act<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Ah, parenthood! This sweet mix of unconditional love, indelible dark circles and existential crises in front of a stain of mashed potatoes that you could swear was alive. Add to that a married life to maintain and a sexuality to keep alive, and you get the greatest challenge worthy of a circus act: juggling parental responsibilities without giving up passion (or the baby).<\/strong> <\/p>\n

Before: hot sex, after: “honey, have you thought about diapers?”<\/strong><\/h4>\n

  • After<\/strong> : “Shall we take a nap while the little one sleeps?”<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    And if you still have some energy after 12 hours of intense parenting, there is still a major obstacle: the child’s radar ear.<\/strong> You thought you were discreet? No. This child has developed a sixth sense to interrupt any intimate moment with perfect synchronization. <\/p>\n
