San Francisco mother Sara Lopes didn t even realize she d lost a part of herself until she got it back. I had been so consumed with both children and starting to work again that we hadn t had sex in maybe a year and a half, says Lopes, 41, whose first name has been changed to protect her privacy. Figuring out how to have dinners prepped, remembering to buy rain boots, paying our credit card bill, scheduling play dates, worrying about summer camps. I couldn t even think about my social life, let alone my sex life. Only after Lopes and her husband instituted Saturday night sex did the truth dawn on her: I had needs that I had absolutely forgotten about.
