Kids should be a blessing to the home and not divide couples apart.<br \/>\n}<br \/>\nBoth partners are responsible for keeping the romance alive even after the babies start coming. These tips below would help.<\/p>\n<p>1. NO ONE SHOULD BE CHEATED<\/p>\n<p>To keep the romance alive, both partners have to work and not leave the other to do everything. With babies and kids come a lot of responsibilities, and when all the chores are being left for one partner, that partner would start feeling cheated.<\/p>\n<p>It usually starts with the feeling of being cheated; this could create a divide between both partners and in turn kill the romance.<\/p>\n<p>2. DO THINGS TOGETHER<\/p>\n<p>Doing things together is a good way to keep the romance alive. Togetherness would make you and your partner fond of each other, and that\u2019s all it takes to keep the romance alive.<\/p>\n<p>3. PRIORITIZE DATE NIGHTS<\/p>\n<p>Date nights should never be joked with; couples who take date nights seriously tend to have a better marriage. Having regular date nights would keep the fire burning and make you and your partner fond of each other and more in love with each other.<\/p>\n<p>4. MAKE TIME FOR SEX <\/p>\n<p>Sex is still important; when your sex life starts to suffer, your romance would gradually become affected. With babies coming in, it\u2019s so easy to forget about sex; but this isn\u2019t healthy. Still create time for sex, and watch your romance come alive.<\/p>\n<p>5. SPOIL EACH OTHER<\/p>\n<p>When couples start having kids, they tend to spoil their kids and shower them with love and affection, and then forget to do so for each other. That\u2019s totally wrong.<\/p>\n<p>Spoil each other with gifts and treats; shower each other with love and affection. Never joke with this tip; things like this would remind you why you fell in love with each other.<\/p>\n<p>6. BE A DAD\/MUM AND A HUSBAND\/WIFE<\/p>\n<p>You have a role as a parent and you also have a role to play as spouses; don\u2019t play your role as a parent and forget to play your role as a husband\/wife.<\/p>\n<p>7. FLIRT WITH EACH OTHER<\/p>\n<p>Flirting isn\u2019t for unmarried couples alone; don\u2019t forget to flirt with each other, look sexy for each other and entice each other. Maintaining that desire even after having kids would go a long way in keeping the romance alive.<\/p>\n<p>8. BE ON THE SAME PARENTING PAGE<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t see each other as a competition; it\u2019s things like these that cause troubles between couples, and this would eventually kill the romance.<\/p>\n<p>Try to be on the same parenting page, work as a team, understand each other and iron out differences on time \u2014 and watch your romance spike.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to keep the romance alive because once it dies, so many other things would suffer. The success of a home depends on this; plus your kids are also watching; it would be easier for them to love each other when the parents love each other.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{In many homes, the romance tends to die when kids start coming; but it shouldn\u2019t be so.
