Sleepy afterwards
| Mon, 08-08-2005 - 2:51am |
After my DH and I have sex I am so tired. I am sore all over. I told him about this and he gets the same way. Its after like 30 min sessions. I will have like 3 orgasms and then when we are done I get very drowsy and ache for hours. Any advice... On the plus side... the sex is good :)

Drowsiness after sex, even without orgasms, is caused by the endorphins released during sexual activity (as well as exercise, meditation, and lots of other "pleasurable" activities!). It's completely normal.
As far as the being "achy".......that could mean that you're using muscles that you don't normally use.....so either have more sex, or start exercising.
PS: do a search on "endorphins" and see what other benefits you get from them!
I get very tired. Dh likes to snack afterwards...I guess it's like working out. You've burned some calories and you naturally want to eat. LOL! I'm out before he gets back to the room with his snack.
If we have a marathon night (haha) it takes a lot for me to stay awake in between the actual acts. We usually watch a porn to keep me from falling asleep.
