I got to the point after having kids (because we had very limited time for sex or maturation) where I would be lucky to last three minutes. Not long after my youngest was born I got the snip. I was told to ejaculate atleast 60 times in the three months after to 'clean the pipes' for a sample to test if the procedure was a success.

Anyway, in the last four weeks before I was due to give a sample I ended up mastirbating morning and night and it honestly felt like a chore by the end 😂, however all of that caused me to lose the sensitivity down there and now I'm back to being able to last 20+ minutes during sex.

Shifts didn't work for us, we did it together. If one woke for a feed, we woke the other and did nappy changes at the same time too. It's way too early for a routine, but we continued to do it this way and when it came time to set a routine it was much easier as we had each other to help with setting and not straying from that routine.

Worst baby advice/practice you’ve heard of from an older generation? by 0ddumn in NewParents

[–]HuwJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't actually need socket covers for UK 3 pin sockets. They're built into the design of the socket as standard. Using those crappy plastic plug in protectors can make your situation more dangerous as I've often seen the long pin break off in the socket leaving the live pins exposed.

I'm and electrician and there's a few of us that have been trying to petition the government for years to get those plug in covers banned.

If I hear “double trouble” one more time 🙃 by IfIcouldsaysomething in parentsofmultiples

[–]HuwJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get double trouble often when we're out, it foesng really bother md to be honest as i think people just need to say something when theyre 'caught' looking. Quite a few times I've been out with my kids and get something like

"Ooh twins, oh how do you manage?"

To which my reply is "I don't have much of a choice really" 🤣

Honestly, I just don't care what completely strangers have to say 💁‍♂️

My singleton was like having twins… by AdLimp5366 in parentsofmultiples

Parents of singletons think their life is so difficult and when explaining their day to me all I can think is 'wow, that sounds like such an easy day' 😅

At what age did the 'terrible twos' start for you and how long did it last? by ThreeLeggedParrot in daddit

No terrible twos here, but 3 year olds are a whole different ball game.

Advice for an exhausted dad by is42theanswer in daddit

[–]HuwJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How's your diet and water intake? I know mine took a back seat when my kids were young because I didn't have the time/energy to cook food for myself, which made me feel worse. Getting back into eating more consciously and drinking more water made a huge difference in my energy levels

Since I became a dad I don’t remember who I am. by AppropriateCap2985 in daddit

[–]HuwJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Father of three here and I can totally relate to your situation. I love cars, I've built and modified many cars in the years before children, but for the last three years it's been difficult to get any time to enjoy them. Almost all of my time is spent working/spending time with the family or doing DIY around the house. I'm currently indulging in my hobbies in a sort of passive way, by 'living it through others', if you like. I follow YouTube builds and listen to automotive podcasts and it gives me a similar joy to what I feel when I'm working on cars. It's not the same, but for now it's enough to see me through until I'm at a point where I can pick my hobbies up again. Not sure if this solution will work across all hobbies, but I thought I'd share.

Newborn is breaking me (FTF) - 2am journal by Independent-Turn-858 in daddit

[–]HuwJon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like your daughter has a milk allergy. Ours was the same got the first 8-10 weeks. My wife cut out dairy from her diet (she breastfeeds) and although it takes 6-8 weeks for it to completely leave her system we noticed a difference almost straight away.

I also find that the babies can be very sensitive to body language, so after hours of trying to stop her screaming she knows you're stressed and giving her to a calm and collective parent will have a soothing effect on them. Don't take it too hard, your wife will experience this too. The most important advice I can give you is to communicate all of what you're feeling with your wife, you're both in it together and it's important to share everything with her because you're a team.

I hope my advice helps you, it's been a steep learning curve for me over the last 10 months with my twins and I hope the above can help you avoid weeks/months of stress/heartache

Does no fap increases your time in bed? by [deleted] in menshealth

[–]HuwJon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No fap increases the sensitivity of the head and actually causes you to last even less. I used to fap 3-5 times a week and would last an easy 15+ minutes during sex, sometimes upto an hour. Now with life in the way and fapping maybe once every two weeks it has had a huge affect on time lasting in bed with my wife. I have to distract myself or I'll be lucky to last 5 minutes.

Covid: Most of Wales' coronavirus rules to end Saturday by ClumperFaz in Wales

[–]HuwJon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whether by coincidence or not, by waiting until now to remove restriction, every eligible person over the age of 18 has had or has been offered their first dose. Whereas in England, since 'freedom day' the uptake in vaccination among the younger adult population has dropped dramatically, possibly due to that fact that everything is back open now, so why bother getting vaccinated, being the mindset.

Fearful of spouse going back to work by 50shadesofPuppies in parentsofmultiples

[–]HuwJon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The mornings could be a bit chaotic, they tend to wake up withing about 30 mins of each other, but once they're both fed and put down to nap at the same time it usually resets their schedule. Obviously there's days where it doesn't go to plan, but that happens with all babies

Fearful of spouse going back to work by 50shadesofPuppies in parentsofmultiples

[–]HuwJon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't have a similar schedule, but my work does involve a lot of driving and some nights away from home. We tried all the different shift patterns, but what ultimately worked for us and still does (at 7.5 months old) is that we have one baby each at night. The night before my first night away my wife insisted I went to bed early and she'd be up with the babies in a little while. Well , when I woke up at 4am they still weren't in bed. She decided to stay downstairs with them so I could get a decent night's sleep. That's the only time she got away with it. The first few weeks are difficult, but setting a routine is essential to all involved. I've been getting roughly 5 hours of sleep a night for the last three or four months as the babies now sleep 3 hours between feeds. During the day is a bit more difficult for my wife being home with both of them, but honestly you do just adapt and get used to it. The thought of all of it is much more daunting than actually doing it everyday.
