Rediscover the Sparks: Creative Ways to Rekindle Romance
They say that true love stands the test of time, but are we sure "they" weren't just trying to be optimistic? It's 24 months post-partum and while a solo trip to the grocery store feels like a mini-vacation, true romance may feel like it's hiding somewhere behind that pile of laundry. Fear not, wonder woman! We've got some spicy tips lined up that don't require you to bust out a single interpretive dance move. So strap on those confidence-boosting Mum Tum leggings and let's get started!
1. Date Night, But Make It Cozy
Think Netflix, but with less chilling and more “Will you pass the popcorn, darling?” Make your living room the ultimate love lounge with fairy lights, gourmet hot chocolate (or wine, you're doing great, sweetie), and your favorite pajamas.
Your couch is the new 5-star restaurant. Reservations are open, and there's no dress code!
2. Surprise Notes: Texts Are So 2001
Randomly leaving cute, saucy notes in your partner's jacket pocket or lunch bag will keep them guessing and grinning. Because let's face it, nothing says "I love you" quite like finding a doodle of a taco on a sticky note.
Who needs Shakespeare when you've got your quirkiness?
3. Revive Old Traditions
Remem
ber that playlist of songs you both loved in your pre-parent days? Blast it during a lazy Sunday brunch or while you both attempt to remember how to properly slow dance. Spoiler: Laughing is highly encouraged.The time machine awaits! Destination: Your Golden Era.
4. Breakfast in Bed? Yes, Please!
Channel your inner gourmet chef (or just fry an egg) and surprise your partner with a morning treat. They’ll appreciate the gesture, but let's be real— the extra five minutes in bed is the real MVP here.
The early bird gets the worm, but the snooze button is a close second.
5. Adrenaline Adventure: AKA Update Your Insurance
Ever tried parasailing? Rock climbing? Toddler chasing? Each activity is guaranteed to get your heart rate rocking. Plus, trying new things together equals ultimate couple goals. Just don't forget the emergency chocolate stash.
There’s no bonding quite like “I think we might die, but I love you” bonding.
6. Culinary Delights & Minor Kitchen Fires
Cook a new dish together! At worst, you'll laugh about it over your pizza order, and at best, you'll find a new favorite recipe. Either way, you're in for interesting fridge art, courtesy of the resident tiny human.
When in doubt, laugh it out and sprinkle cheese on it.

Because "me time" can be "we time" too.

Dust off those board games or challenge your partner to a video game battle. Whether it’s Mario Kart or Chess, remember: no relationship actually ended over competitive UNO... right?
Game face on, love goggles off—let the battles begin!
