Unplug the WiFi and Plug into Romance: How to Love Each Other More than Your Streaming Service!

Well, hello there, fabulous! If you're reading this, chances are you're somewhere between diaper duty and dreaming of a full night's sleep. Congratulations on the new addition to your family! You're in that magical time known as 0 to 6 months postpartum—you know, when coffee becomes your spirit animal, and romance feels as elusive as a unicorn.

Between keeping your tiny human alive, deciphering the mysteries of baby sleep cycles, and perhaps remembering the deep joy of showering daily, who has time for enhancing their love life? Right? Wrong! It's high time we bump “romance” up the list, right under “do the dishes” and “stop the cat from sitting in the baby’s cradle.”

Remember, evening lights don’t always come from a nursery night-light!

We all know the truth—watching another episode is not foreplay, no matter how steamy that Netflix series gets. After a full day of 'momming', your mental energy might be more zonked than your baby after a big feed, but it's important to connect with your partner. Whether it's with a grand gesture, like scheduling a night out, or small ones, like sending cheeky texts—do whatever it takes to sneak in some couple-time.

Toss that notion of “perfect date night” into the bin alongside your unmatched socks and just create mome

nts. Ever tried wearing your Mum Tum leggings and pulling off a stint of 'YouTube Zumba'? That’s right! Spotlight some living room dance moves and indulge in a kind of love that's neither sterile nor cliché. Your post-baby body is not a roadmap to hide—it’s a journey to flaunt!

Speaking of flaunting, let's have a little chat about embracing the body you have now. Those extra curves here and there? They're badges of honor, love marks that tell the world you're a badass mom! The secret is feeling comfortable and confident, and Mum Tum leggings are the MVP in this champions league. They don't care if you've napped more than moved that day, they just want you feeling good.

Now, let's put down that tub of ice cream, pick up a bottle of vino—because breastfeeding baby doesn’t have to sulk forever in milk coma—and suggest a grown-up game night. No mobile phones allowed. Rules include creativity, laughter, and absolutely zero thinking about baby names.

Post-baby blues need post-baby reds—think spicy chili night!

Looking to spice things up? Try bonding over cooking a new recipe together. Set the playlist to a steamy Latin mix, and see who can keep up with the hottest beats—not to mention, taste tests are mandatory. Remember, those who overindulge in paprika wear moustaches of shame...or triumph.

And no romance chit-chat would be complete without mentionin

g “the talk.” Yes, it’s the DTR (define the relationship) of parenting—check-ins. Remind each other why you’re doing this whole ‘parenting’ thing together. Compliment that savior of sanity who hands over the TV remote when your hands are full or manages to brew that crucial morning coffee. These bits of gratitude go a long way! Heck, surprise them with some Maternity leggings if you're expecting or just want a soft-flex to your prenatal glow. Life’s short, dance in the kitchen!

Finally, remember romance doesn’t require an elaborate blueprint. It's in the goofy footprint of shared kisses and ridiculous banter, in knowing looks exchanged over the baby's head when they do something exceptionally cute (or exceptionally gross).

So cut the streaming service some slack, forge a mythical evening without any screen distractions, and dive into the romance puddle—with mismatched socks and all. You're not just keeping a little human alive, you're sculpting a love that's dynamic, resilient, and occasionally sprinkled with baby drool.

Now go on—light a candle, embrace the chaos, and love like no one's listening. Because honestly, that baby monitor isn't Robert Frost's sensational listener, but probably needs a pause.

Don’t take life too seriously—you’ll never get out of it alive!

So, remember to schedule that date night that turns into a date morning, and never underestimate the power of laughter and loving glances. And if you’re still expecting, snuggle up into those Maternity leggings and prepare to rock the post-baby romance in unparalleled comfort.

There you have it, parents! Romantic glimmers can shine amidst the busiest days. Now, time's a-ticking… off you go to reclaim your #relationshipgoals!

Signed, a cheeky fairy godmother, delivering saucy tips sans wand!
