Today, It's been over 4 months since I last had sex. My husband and I never get any alone time. I got the kids to bed early on the couch. We started fooling around. We took our time with foreplay. Then, just as he put in the tip, our 3 year old burst in wanting to get in bed with us. FML

I don't know how old your kids are, we know one is 3. However, even at young ages, it's important to start teaching them boundaries and independence. Even at 3, they should start understanding that bedtime means bedtime. They are to stay in their own room and their own bed, (or couch in this case), unless there's an emergency or bad dream of course. If you don't teach them this, and don't nip the "I want to sleep in mom and dad's bed" in the bud now, they won't learn it and will continue to take advantage of sleeping with you, and you guys will never get privacy. When they want to get in bed with you, you're going to have to start saying "no," and taking them to their own room, no matter how upset this makes them. For now, I'd get a babysitter, or relatives to take the kids overnight, and plan a date night.

This is a good way to prevent future FML's from both parties! #1 knows their shit

Definitely agree with what infinitesunshine said. I know a friend who's parents let their little sister sleep in the bed with them all the time when she was little. By the time she was about to start kindergarten she was still sleeping in their bed. The parents got so frustrated (from not only lack of intimacy but also lack of sleep due to the little one being a severe toss and turner) that they were starting to fight a lot. Finally buy almost the end of grade 4 the kid was sleeping in her own bed. So deffinatly nip it in the butt now before it becomes a routine.

My brother slept in my parents bed til he was 12. Definitely something to deal with sooner, rather than later

Ydi. Lock your door. Ps. No time in 4 months? For a ten min quicky? I find that hard to believe if you make it a priority. And if you dont then again, ydi

Did it occur to you that maybe they want actual intimacy, not a "ten minute quickie" where the guy gets off and the woman probably gets left with nothing except a mess? Maybe they want sex that is equally pleasurable and is based in healthy communication, with both of them coming out of it feeling good about what just happened, on not just a physical level but an emotional one.

A ten minute quickie is better than nothing at all in a four month period.

You clearly don't have kids. Ten minute quickly while you're worrying about the kids knocking on the door sucks compared to taking time on each other for actual intimacy and romance.

Lock the door. Put Vaseline on the outside knob. Make love. Other than that. Quickies.

Totally understand how you feel. I have a 10 year old that has a hard time sleeping at night. While she is at school and I don't have to be at work early, my husband and I find time to be intimate with each other.

put a lock on your door and teach your kids that you both need alone time.

Tell him "piss off were trying to **** you lil ****"
