Schedule time to go screw in another room.
Before my daughter moved into her own room, we’d put her to sleep and have “date nights” in our living room. Or do things like shower together while the baby napped. Gotta get creative! And remember it won’t last forever, be patient with yourselves and each other.
I am sorry to hear that. I remember experiencing that myself shortly after we had our first baby (we were also living in a small apartment). We would put the baby to sleep in our room and then have little slumber parties in the living room.
It is hard and every one has to go through this phase. My advice is let nature run its course don't force anything. It is not an easy job what you are doing but yes try to capture some magical moments when you have time and space
Do it in the showers. Efficiency is key. It’s a stressful time for sure when it comes to intimacy with so little time. Hang in there!
Move to a bigger place
Would like that but we are financially tight right now. I lost my job and husbands hours are cut back.
I think this is natural for everyone the first year after a kid is born. It's hard to adjust to the new routine, especially with a baby to take care of. Set aside time to make it a priority until things normalize a bit.
Do you live in a HCOL area and besides jobs, are there other constraints such as caregiving to a family-dependent that lives locally? If you are flexibility and you live in a HCOL area, I would consider relocation. Get remote jobs and call it a life. Easier said than done but not impossible.
