Dearest Ọmọ Oódua Readers: My wife says no s-ex while her mother stays with us - What should I do?



I'm happily married with two small children ages 2 and 4. We stay static in a 2-bedroom apartment and usually leave the connecting door ajar so that when the kids wake up during the night they could have access to the room to seek comfort, which will be very frequent especially during these noisy thunder storms.
My problem started with the arrival of my mother-in-law, less than one week to spend extra 2 months. Obviously, she sleeps with her grand kids inside their room. This doesn't stop them from frequenting our room during the night, so the door is quit ajar. Much to my amazement, my partner has said that she will no longer allow us to copulate in the period her mother is with us. She said her mum scolded her and feels we're rude to take part in lovemaking knowing fully well that she is in the adjoining room.
Huh!!! Hehe.  Carry On After the Break...
My partner has always feared her mum therefore it is impossible for me to convince her that this is her house, not her mum's. I don't see myself going 1 week without sex, talk less of 2 months! Is it my fault that the bed creaks or that my partner has to create noise at her height of ecstasy?
I feel that my mother-in-law is being very intrusive and insensitive and I'm willing to keep in touch with her and ask her to leave if she insists on tormenting my partner, but I understand that my partner won't believe it is funny at all. What should I actually do?

  1. Well... The state of mind of your wife during sex is almost as important as her physical presence at that very moment. And since the thought of her mum hearing the sounds emanating from your room during sex makes her uncomfy as well as her mum. Then maybe you guys should allow your mother in law take care of the kids totally as they sleep.. No more leaving doors ajar, cos that's what will make those sounds reach the other room. And I think its quite unhealthy for your kids no matter how little you think they are to be hearing those sounds too.. Please don't make this about your mother in law. Make it about upping your privacy with your wife henceforth.
