Not Tonight...I'm Sick of You Touching Me

Not Tonight...I'm Sick of You Touching Me

"Mommy, read to me!" "I need a snack." "Hold me!" The demands of motherhood are constant and wonderful. They'll also leave you feling like you just did the lambada with a grizzly bear (and if you've never been subjected to the clamoring and clambering of two-year-old twins, just take our word for it.)

Is it any wonder, then, that sex just isn't at the top of the list at the end of the day? That's the theory posed in this insightful article by Jeanne Sager, who says that the constant pawing by your beloved child may be the reason parents aren't doing any heavy petting when the kids are finally down for the night.

If you're a new mom who isn't feeling the love, you tell us—is being manhandled all day the issue? Or is it something deeper for you?
