DD used to be such a good sleeper. well lately she hasn't been taking her naps in the day (sleep for 5-20 minutes and wake up when she used to go down for 1-3 hours!) and she's been staying up really late, even when i wake her early. so DH and i haven't had any alone time, normally it's while she naps or sleeps at night. well DH mentioned tonight that we had only made love in our own bed once since we bought it several months ago. so i figure i'll get DD to sleep in the living room on a makeshift bed on the floor, we've done it for naps so why not? well DD just got to sleep now and DH is sleeping on the living room floor and DD is in our bed :( so it's not working out even close to as planned. should i wake DH and tell him to crawl into bed and sleep? should i let him sleep on the floor? should i try to move DD to the living room and see if DH is still "in the mood"? should i let her stay in our bed and just wake DH so we can make love on the living room floor....like we have had to every other time? i'm dead tired worn out from DD but i really want some loving lol, i just don't know if DH will still be up for it...what do you think?
I don't have any advice because my kids still end up in my bed through out the night! I feel your pain.
He's a man, if you wake him for lovin', he will be very excited!! Have fun.

First let me say.....WAKE UP DH and make love girl!! Living room, bathroom, kitchen table....who cares go for it!!
But that is not what I voted. LOL! It is not a permanent solution, although a night of fun is always good. Does your DD have a little bed of her own? A playpen or a crib? She needs to be sleeping in that at night if you can. Keeping her in your bed is not good for the two of you. I know it is hard. Trust me. Do what you can to play and wear her out, then give her a good bath, a good warm bottle and put her to bed. Your bed is for you and your DH. She has to understand that and she will over time. It might take a few nights and you might have some crying. Just check her and make sure she is okay. I just gave my daughter the same advice. Having the baby in bed with you is not a good idea. You and DH need your private time and your rest too. It is not fair to either of you for DH to be on the living room floor. If it helps, keep DD in your bedroom in a comfy playpen next to the bed so when she wakes up she sees she is in the same room. That is a start.
Good Luck Sweetie. Now go to the livingroom and wake hubby up and enjoy some one-on-one time and let him know you might have a solution!!! LOL!
