For us, it depends on the emotional state of our marriage rather than the physical tiredness or our kids trying to get into our room.
After DH's addiction came to light, we engaged in hysterical bonding (basically, it's where couples seek to reconnect with each other and fairly typical behavior) We had sex multiple times a day. It was a good thing DS liked Thomas the Train. It always seemed to be on PBS right when we needed it...That lasted for a couple of months.
I can be exhausted and I'm still willing to out if I'm feeling emotionally connected.

Husband and I have definately moved on to the Hallway stage of marital relations. Hallway sex can be lots of fun too. From the mumbled "screw you" to the outright, in your face, up against the wall "fuck you!" And if you get a "fuck you too" back, then everyone got off on it. I love mumbled passive aggressive hallway sex...helps me keep my sanity.

The article had a rather strange tone to it. I too am wondering if it was a spoof or joke.

We try to do it once a week.
DH would prefer it if we did it every single day and sometimes he gets pissy about it, but we both work full time and have two children, one of which is only 2 months old.
Sorry but somewhere in there we need time to eat, shower and sleep. I am past the age where I can pull an all nighter and still focus the next day. Everything in my life can't be priority #1.
We had a humongous fight over sex after Gwen was born and I finally asked him what is the amount of sex you'd need to make you happy. He said twice a week.
I was keeping up my end of the deal till Abby was born. We're down to once a week right now which I think is pretty good considering all we have on our plates, but I'll find him being pissy over our "lack of sex" every once and awhile.

Well, when we first started dating he was pretty clear that if he wasn't getting it at least three times a week, he would be unhappy. And damned if he's not a cranky little bugger if he's not. At least he was honest and upfront about it!
So - at least 3x a week. LOL

Besides, it only takes a minute, I am sure you could Squeeze it in if you wanted to.

certainly not enough. Dating with kids makes it difficult to schedule at best.

It should be fine to Google. Hillary Clinton said she makes a mean tossed salad (and a great omelet).

We used to have "relations" several times a week...then I went and got a job. Now I am so exhausted when I get home, I am lucky if I can keep my eyes open past 8:30 pm!
This. Sometimes I have to remind BF that I have a job. His ex-GFs did not work so they could drop their pants whenever he wanted them to.
