SO! I am trying to find a photographer in my general area. I live in Northwest Indiana, on the tip of Lake Michigan, about an hour from Chicago. I can't seem to find anyone that is near me... My hubby's no good at photography, and our camera isn't super high quality. I have a friend that I have talked to about it, but she's never available, considering she works two jobs, is looking for a place to move with her boyfriend, and has been having a lot of health issues as of late. I hate to as her to try to fit me in her schedule while she's as busy as she is- even though I know she would try, despite it all.
Of course, i just had my baby. I got most all of my baby weight off in the first month, but I still have a little extra in the front and the thighs I want to work off. But doing that kind of thing when I'm at home everyday with my daughter is near impossible. It's not nice enough for me to go for a walk regularly with the baby, and my hubby is working to support us, so he's not home enough for me to go out alone even a few times a week. I don't have the cash to pay for childcare, which I wouldn't want to do on a regular basis anyways. ugh. The one time I need the money most is when I have the least opportunity to do anything about it, as I'm sure lots of other moms can understand. Hell, you don't even have to be a mom to know that feeling. I was in the same situation when I was working part-time and going to school full-time at the same time.
Anyways, aside from all that, I'm thrilled to be a mom! She's so beautiful! And since I'm no longer carrying 20 lbs. in my uterus, and I'm all healed from pushing the nearly 9 lb child from my vag, I can get back to have awesome sex with my man. Of course, when I have to stop mid-hump to put my undies back on and go pick up my crying infant, it's kind of a mood-killer. But for the most part, my sex life is back to awesome.

And too bad you're not around me, I'd do it for you. However, from Philly, the Chicago area is a bit too much of a haul, especially for another SAHM.
I remember the baby shuffle. My girls both seemed to have a third sense about when mommy was about to "get some". Almost every time they would wake up and interrupt... Hopefully for you, yours won't be like mine. Each did it for almost 2 years... which equaled 4 consecutive years of trying to "sneak" in a love making session.
