we have 3 children and heās a semi truck driver on the road 5 days a week, we have sex prob once every other week Iām to tired from chasing kids all week
Psychologists have determined that itās impossible to generalize what āenough sexā is because everyone is different. However, in one study, they found a āleveling offā point at once/week where increasing the frequency beyond once per week did not affect the level of happiness of either partner. In fact, pressure to have more sex decreased happiness in some participants. But, I should note that in multiple studies sex, particularly orgasm, has been linked to various health benefits for males and females alike.
With all that said, you definitely donāt have a sexless relationship, what you have is a sex discrepancy which is where one of you desires more sex than the other. It is super common and can resolved by reintroducing nonsexual intimacy and compromise.
Once a week is good lol
Maybe once a week or every two weeks because I do have abdominal pain so thatās technically not normal standards
Military wife so thereās your answer

My bf works 12 hrs a day 6 days a week lucky if we do it 2x a week Iām 41 yrs old and he is 31 yrs old .sometimes I feel unloved
You shouldnāt compare yourselves to others. If he wants more sex he should just say that. He needs to understand though that heās getting more booty than the average married man. Once a week is perfectly healthy. You shouldnāt have sex unless you want to though and I can not stress that enough.
Youāre also pregnant, and itās a pretty bad idea to judge your sex life while pregnant, and up to 6 months after the baby is born. There is no normal sex life in those months. Most pregnant people either get insanely horny (which doesnāt last long either) or they are just really turned off and arenāt in the mood often (which also goes away after a while). He canāt count anything as normal right now.

3 to 5 times for us! Compromise on something that works for both of you 
Every couples different. My previous relationship was maybe 5 times a month max. This relationship is 3 or 4 times a week
Well Iām no spring chicken and I havenāt been in a relationship for a couple years but the last few relationships that I did have were significantly long and I must say in the beginning it was all the time and then it slowed down but I know that we definitely had sex more than three times a week even in the very end. With that being said if you donāt wanna do it then you shouldnāt be made to feel like you have to.
All 5 pregnancies I was super horny during them. Every day at least once but I could have easily done it more.
My last bub I didnāt realise at the time but I was in labour and we tried but he said everything was too wet and then about 4 hours later we realised my hind waters had actually broken and thatās why it was too wet according to him. 
On average itās every day or 2. He wants quality and quantity but I canāt do both! I have 5 kids to raise here and a part time job!
My hubby and I have been married over 22 yrs once a week it is for us

I also think it has to do with where your at in your life so me and my partner were having sex atleast twice a week if not more when I was pregnant now that the baby is here were both just too tired with 2 other children and the baby so were lucky if we have sex once a week (we usually try for that) but once the baby gets older and we are less tired weāll probably start having more sex ā¦so itās normal if your tired you donāt feel as sexy and you used to idk what your going through but Iāve been with my partner for almost 7 years and as long as weāre laughing and talking to each other our sex life tends to work itself out.
I agree with him that there times a week is healthy. Once a week here and there like if you are under the weather or had surgery or something. Anything less than once a week and I would HAVE to get myself off somehow (or I would be thinking of dicks so much I couldnāt live my life lol). I imagine same is true for most men and many women. You donāt want your man having to masterbate or have sex outside or his sex life with you, right? So. Put out. Even if you donāt like to do it that often, you would rather put out than to have someone else putting it on him. Spice up your sex life with some kink that YOU like. Men (in my experience) are down with whatever kink you bringing as long as they are getting it in. Put it on him every night for a month. Dig deep in your head and play out some dark deepness that gives you the best climax. You will have a happy husband, you know nobody else riding him, and you may even uncover something juicy about yourself. Itās win win.
12 years. 4 (at minimum)+ times a week
Donāt put the pressure on yourself of asking people on here. Especially if youāre pregnant. Its tough on your body in every way. My husband never gave me grief if I wasnāt feeling up to it cause he knew. Even after, you just donāt have the same freedom. Although when you do get that time together, I feel like we both cherish it so much more!

the average couple has sex 52 times a year, once a week. that does not mean every couple. i agree with the ones saying 3 to 5 times a week tho. sometimes itās more, sometimes itās less.
while i was pregnant tho was different. you should do what you are comfortable with!
Normal is whatever is good between BOTH of you.
