Have you traded in your fishnets for sweats? Swapped those lacy thongs for granny pants? Being a mom is more than a full time job – and often a dirty, grimy, sweaty one at that - it’s easy to lose touch with your more sensual side. Perhaps it got buried under a heap of laundry. Or a pile of dishes. Or maybe that stack of bills.Next time you’ve got a night off from the kids (or if they sleep really soundly), pounce on the situation!The following tips will help you find that inner sex goddess. Here, kitty kitty….
1. Get Into Character. The first step to bringing out the sex goddess within is to start thinking like one. Step out of Mommy mode and into Vixen! For inspiration, take lessons from the Masters (er, make that Mistresses):Rita Hayworth, Brigitte Bardot, Sophia Loren
2. Whet his appetite. Whip up a bowl of something sensual - perhaps some succulent figs or lush, red strawberries – the list is endless (See “Raw Foods that Put You in the Mood” for more ideas). Sit on your man’s lap and feed them to him, seductively.
3. Set The Mood. Tidy up your bedroom before hand – it does no good to be tripping over those sweatpants, or toy train sets for that matter. Put your most luxurious sheets on the bed and lightly mist with vanilla scent. Light some candles or drape warm-colored scarves over the lamps. Perhaps tie some long scarves to the bedposts to use later on your man if you’re feeling really randy!
4. Take Turns with a Sensual Massage. Mix a few drops of vanilla essential oil (a natural aphrodisiac) with some virgin coconut butter for a sexy massage oil.
5. Perform a Strip Tease. This is where those stilettos come in handy… and ditch those granny pants for some sexy lingerie, or better yet, indulge yourself in a new set – you deserve it! If Rita, Brigitte, and Sophia (See #1) didn’t give you enough inspiration, check out this excellent and informative article on “How to Perform a Striptease!” Pick a song you can really get into.Some of my faves are:“Suzie Q” by Credence Clearwater Revival, “10 Seconds to Love” by Motley Crue, “Girls on Film” by Duran Duran What are some of your favorites?
6. Try Something New. Tired of the same-ole missionary, woman-on-top, and from behind positions? Try changing things up a bit. Perhaps in a chair or standing up. For tons more ideas on how to spice things up, check out “500 Lovemaking Tips & Secrets”.
7. Play a Game. An adult game for once! Check out “100 Great Sex Games For Couples” for lots of fun and exciting ways that will ignite your passions and leave you both purring for days….It may seem ironic that, at 5 months pregnant, I am writing about being a sex kitten. Admittedly, I look utterly ridiculous in fishnets and sexy lingerie right now; and wearing stilettos is downright dangerous while pregnant – if I don’t break my neck, I could fall flat on my arse - and that would be really funny! BUT, hey, sexy is the mood we’re going for, not comedic…. ;)However, pregnancy is one of those times I feel most sensual. There’s not much sexier than the ample bosom, swollen belly, and womanly curves of a pregnant woman, if you ask me. No props necessary.
