Good question!

I voted no! Because .I'm a paranoid freak who overthinks things! Laughing

we only do it if .Alyvia is asleep in another room. And half the time she wakes up while we're doing it and starts to cry, and I immediately want to stop and go to her, because I feel like a terrible mother if she's crying and .I'm too busy having sex to bother with her.

We haven't had sex in our bedroom since I was pregnant. Embarassed

Yes lmao, I see no reason not too - if the baby is a baby.
If the baby is a toddler then it gets a bit more questionable.
But then a toddler would be in his/her own room anyway right? So the question is then non applicable.

But while baby is a baby hell yes Wink

Now I will elaborate.

I don't mean going at it while the baby is awake and you're in their sight. More like, if they're sleeping in the same room.

I'm creeped out by the dog being in the room while we're doing it so i've always said no way was the baby going to be in there. But... He sleeps in our room and he's been in there twice while we've been having sex. In our defense it was very quiet and pretty quick and we turned the tv up (lol), and it's not like he'll remember it. But he woke up during the last time and it's kind of hard to proceed when you can hear baby noises.

Anyway... Am I the only inappropriate one? I definitely wouldn't be having loud sex with him in there, sleeping or not!

No, I think you are doing fine .B Wink

children should grow up to learn that sex is part of a healthy relationship between mommy and daddy (i don't mean showing them the intimacy of it lol but loving etc) and also not to be ashamed of their bodies - no one is a better role model for your child as to what "normal" is than you - the parents.

We've only done it once when she was a couple of months old (the first time we did anything since she was born)
but .I just didn't like the idea and it was kinda creepy, so that was the end. She started sleeping in her crib in her room shortly after that since she was sleeping through the night.

That would be weird and she's wake up and start crying and we'd be getting it on right there.
This morning we left her sleep in her bassinet in the living room and went run to the bedroom really quickly. If she would have woke up, it would have been ruined.

Yeah...Adriana didn't wake up. If she did, it would have been more ruined that it already was. It's hard to concentrate when all you do is stare at the sleepin' bebe in the bassinet lol. *focus!*

My mom offered to come once a week and sleep so we can sleep through the night. That's sex night and we sneak it when we can in between. Lol

Tre slept in our room until he was 3 first in his crib then in our bed(....Yeah I know). So we always had to do it in the guest bedroom when he finally went to sleep.

I'm still pregnant and I don't know how i'm going to think about it once he's here but my point of view is like well..I have sex now and he's in my belly. I actually think that's kind of weird once I think about it.

Well, this is a funny topic because we just had this problem. I was thinking that it would be ok because she was very asleep, but umm yeah it wasnt' working for me. But I wasn't sure if it was because it was the first time with some one new or my first time in a long time or what. Amelia still sleeps in my room in her travel crib. (at least it's not in my bed) but chad sleeps in her crib in her room when they stay over so it's really weird for me.....I am really afraid that he is going to wake up and come bouncing on in.

I vote yes if you can get over the fact that they are there. Lol
