If you have been reading my blog for over a year now, you might remember the Durex giveaway I had last year! It was a fun one and they have decided to do it again!
As you know, Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 9! As Mom’s we all love the gifts we get from our children. Sweet things like flowers and home-made cards from our children. But you know what else Moms like? They like their husbands to remind them that they are more than just Mother’s!
Once you become a mom, some things get shifted to the back burner. You are busy all the time, you’re tired and you don’t feel all that sexy.
Dr. Laura Berman says this:
As a sex & relationship expert, I often hear about the challenge women have trying to shed the everyday roles of mother, employee, employer, housekeeper, carpool driver, etc and step into a more connected relationship with their partner. If this is the case for you and sex seems more like a chore than something to look forward to, know that you are not alone.
- Many women often confuse low libido with arousal difficulties and may try some of the wrong treatments, especially if they don’t consult a doctor first. Here are some things to know:
- Arousal occurs when the body and the mind respond to physical or psychological stimulation. For example, you might become aroused by looking at a revealing photograph of a sexy actor, or you might become aroused when your partner gives you a deep and erotic kiss.
- Arousal is a key part of your sexual response. When you are aroused (whether through mental or physical stimulation), your body responds almost immediately. Your heartbeat increases, your face flushes and your genitals become engorged with blood.
- As a result of arousal, feelings of warmth and tingling occur in your genitals and natural lubrication occurs. These are all part of sexual response.
- However, for some women, reaching a state of arousal is difficult.
- This could be because of lifestyle factors – such as stress (will the baby wake up?), inhibitions, relationship issues, exhaustion – or it could be a result of hormonal imbalances.
Dr. Laura Berman is a New York Times bestselling author of “The Book of Love” and “The Passion Prescription,”. She is also a mom and a relationship expert. She can offer you ideas on how to shed the everyday roles of mother, employee, housekeeper, carpool driver, etc and step into a more connected relationship with your spouse or partner. Dr. Laure Berman is also a regular on shows such as The Oprah Winfrey Show and Dr. Oz.
Dr. Laura Berman suggests Durex’s Utopia gel – which has been created and tested by women for women using a unique combination of ingredients designed to stimulate, increase desire and bring intense sensation…without hormones!

What does it do and what is in it?
Utopia increases arousal in women by bringing more intense sensations to their erogenous zones and, in particular, to the clitoris. Utopia contains the ingredient arginine, an amino acid that relaxes the muscles around blood vessels to increase blood flow and sensation to the female genitals. Utopia also contains propylene glycol that creates a warming sensation that can help increase your sexual response.
I have used this. I think the stuff is awesome and I think you will as well. I can’t promise that you will have the same response as myself and others have, but it is worth a try.

We try to make it more random (not just during the night in the bedroom), and we try role playing sometimes.
Sending naughty little text messages on his cell phone lets him know you’re thinking about sex & him. The brain is the sexiest organ after all!
I think the biggest thing we’ve done (me really), is refuse to put a tv in the bedroom. It ensures we have to find something else to keep us busy.
Honestly, even if I’m not “in the mood” I just go for it anyway because by the end I am totally in the mood. And my man is happy. 🙂

Well, as a guy I think it’s important to keep my partner feeling special with dinners, massages, small gifts now and then, breakfast in bed etc. Treating her in such a way certainly keeps her above the abyss of regular married life and the passion takes care of itself! 😉
I try to initiate a “romantic interlude” more often. I know my husband and I both appreciate our time together. Thanks.
Well, watching a movie together is all it really takes..something about just sitting close to each other after a long day get’s us going.
I don’t currently have a partner, but I do have my eye on an awfully cute young man I know. Thanks.
I fantisize about other men.
My wife likes that I share the housework load with her. When doing laundry or dishes together, it often leads to more ‘quality time’.
we have lots of fun toys!
we keep the passion alive by being attentive to one another
