Parenting Tips for Your 45-46 Month Old Child

Parents may find that they are overwhelmed and exhausted. That is bound to affect a couple’s love life. It is hard to find time to be intimate with so much to do. You may have been used to cuddling and making love when you first wake up, but your child may have different ideas. At night, you find it almost impossible to lie down without falling asleep.
It is possible for parents to have a fulfilling love life but it might take some planning instead of expecting spontaneous combustion. Scheduling intimate times might be an answer. Ask a friend to take your child for a walk while you enjoy some uninterrupted private time.
Besides planning private time, you could put some effort into getting the tenderness, romance, passion, and excitement back into your love life. Talking and listening is a good place to start. Try these conversation starters:
- I feel loved and cared for when you…
- I feel closest to you when…
Keep sensual experiences in your relationship. Give massages to one another. Cuddle and hug while you tell your partner what is special about your relationship. Share a fantasy you have had about your partner. Here are some other ideas to connect with one another:
- Play “your” song
- Light a scented candle
- Put a personal message on a sticky note on the bathroom mirror.
- Meet in the hall for a 10-second kiss.
