seeking advice for Husband and me to reconnect.
I need some ideas for a date night with my husband
, so we have been on a disconnect. Like, nothing to talk about, don’t know how to get along cause we never have a moment without the kids, and we’ve had sex like once in the past two weeks, and it was awkward like there is no spark anymore. IDK what to do to spend time together. what are some romantic dates you have had? I need your ideas!

Get a sitter, grab some beers and go fishing? That’s what we like to do. Just some alone time together.

Bjs and a finger in his butt should spice things up

Y’all put way too much value on sex. Of course it’s important, but when you’ve got kids, a life, stress… shit happens🤷♀️ 2 weeks isn’t a long time at all. And sex will get “stale”, for lack of a better word, sometimes when you’re together long term. Spend some 1 on 1 time together, communicate your feelings, maybe spice things up in the bedroom… there’s a lot you can do.
Create a first date type of thing. Get a sitter and get all dressed to Impress and play 21 questions or something.
Live outdoor music at a winery/brewery!
Sometimes you can’t beat the good ole dinner and a movie date
… I think the main thing is doing something - it doesn’t matter what - anything that gets y’all out together alone and interacting as a couple. good luck!

I always try to go for fun dates, something that gets us laughing. Go karts, or paintball, somewhere to have fun so you can see eachother happy and laughing.

Oh my heavens… go to a tasting, like bourbon, agave, whiskey… something a little more masculine than wine tasting—(that’s my opinion). Could be a fun night, yous get to learn about something together, share opinions about it together and have some free time in between chat about whatever you want. Dress up cute, take pics and flirt girl 
Give him a blow job and a steak

Re create the first time you guys hung out together ( walk, bumble,etc) or first date. Even if you go for a coffee or your preferred beverage… maybe also open up and talk about how you are feeling… I suggested we go for a bumble like we did when he asked me out and talked. Seemed to work as we are connecting alot better and spark is coming back

If that doesnt work, then what others suggested was a BJ, steak or a “sexy” night
Coffee and a walk on the trails. Quiet time to talk about whatever.
Snuggles on the couch(one kiddos are sleeping lol) and watch a movie just cuddled.
Candle lit dinner for 2 in your own kitchen with fruits for dipping and feeding each other.(again once kids are sleeping lol).
Window shopping at the mall, dreaming about what you’d like to get some day…you find out new things and tastes that way!etc
You can always find a way to connect if you both put the effort and you don’t even need to leave the house(as getting a sitter isn’t always possible lol).
Good luck!

Maybe try changing things on your part. I know it can be annoying, and kind of obnoxious to make yourself vulnerable, but maybe if you did little things here and there to show him that he’s wanted, his actions will follow suit. Be more affectionate, spontaneous even! Make things fun and lighthearted, initiate intimacy, even if you can’t follow through. Just make him feel warm and wanted, I can almost guarantee he will appreciate it so much. A little goes a long way! leave little notes for him around the house, and just to make him feel good. It will feel so great once he reciprocates and it’s almost a sure fire way to reignite the spark!

Get a night where the kids aren’t home. Get some new lingerie he hasn’t seen, put it on, wear it under a cute dress. Make dinner for him, or order. Then watch a nice movie. And boom, magic. 
Visit an adult shop together

Hold hands. Sit close on the sofa. Touch him. Hug and kiss hello and goodbye every day. As a mom it’s so easy to disconnect from your body as an affectionate, sexual partner. Start small with lots of not necessarily sexual but loving physical contact. Ask about his day. Tell him about yours. Show him funny things you found on the internet. Talk about current events. Most importantly, actively stay engaged. And if you aren’t breastfeeding (even if you are, you can pump ahead if babe will take a bottle) a couple of glasses of wine or a nice cocktail can help loosen you up to get past the awkwardness.
My favorite is going to a hotel with a nice big tub

Start the date before the date. Text him a few times during the day. Sexy or silly stuff. I miss you. Thank you for all do. I love you. I want to see you naked. Etc. I bet he will be ready to reconnect when he gets home. Good luck!

Find a restaurant that has live music or something going on and go out for dinner . Sit in a booth together but don’t sit across from each other sit on the same side as one another and cuddle up and get cozy.
Should be something to Definitely work on the communication part of the relationship or else it’s not going to work itself out. Communication is key. But that’s my opinion.

This is gonna sound crazy, but my husband and I laugh at the awkwardness and it makes it feel so much more intimate, just being able to laugh with each other and still being that close it makes it more fun than always so serious if that makes sense?

You don’t need romance you need fun. Do something fun and somewhat silly. Trying to put romance first makes it awkward. Be friends again

We have 9 kids so date nights are almost non existent for us and having sex is like 1x a month…try taking ur showers 2gether, write him love notes and hide them in his lunchbox or pocket of his pants, wallet etc, put the kids to bed and just snuggle and watch a movie. Dont always have to spend money to spark the flame again.
Go to a bar and slow dance.
Communicate, do things you did before kids, foreplay, massages, touching, kissing, goofing off. My husband has been out of the house since Feb, we’ve seen each other about 6 times, 2 of those we had sex, it was like we were dating all over again.
An escape room n dinner. The escape room will get you guys talking n discovering together. N well dinner is always great…
Went out to dinner at nice hotel. Got room etc
Send him a text message to say meet you in the park date time for a picnic tea xxx
If its broke don’t try to fix it. If blew it the first time the second is a disaster.
