Geez, I hope not!

Eva and Ryan were clearly out on a date, no question about it. They were seen at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills for the comedy show and looked more stylish than ever. Ryan had on a sleek black suit and Eva rocked a leopard-print shift dress paired with a printed coat and a beaded caramel turban. Did I mention how slim she looked? You would have never in a million years guessed this woman just had a baby.
But it's not often we see these two spotted out together. In fact, their constant need for privacy has sparked quite a few breakup rumors. It looks like they're doing just fine, though. I could only imagine how difficult it must be for these two to find time for date night between just having a baby and trying to keep a low profile.
It's not easy keeping the romance going once the baby arrives. There's nothing wrong with directing most of your energy to your little one, but you don't want to forget about your relationship either. Luckily, there are ways to keep the romance alive even after the baby is born. Find out how with a few of these tips below!
Make time to kiss: You're busy–I get it! But how much time do you really need for a real lip lock? Save the pecks on the cheeks for the baby and make room each day for a little tongue on tongue action. You'd be surprised how much of an impact this has.
Make a date and stick to it: Even if you need to plan it weeks in advance, set aside some time for you guys to go out as a couple even if that means leaving the baby with grandma and grandpa for a few hours. It doesn't have to be something fancy. A movie date or a special dinner is a great way to reconnect and rekindle things.
Talk everyday: And I don't mean about the baby. Make time to ask your man about his day and have him ask about yours, even if it's just 10 minutes a day. Try to give him your undivided attention and make this a constant habit. It's easy to lose track of what's happening outside of the home once a baby comes into the picture.
Touch: I don't think I need to tell you how important it is to make time for sex even after the baby is born. But they'll be nights when you're just too exhausted to get down and dirty. On those nights, make sure to physically connect whether it's running your hand down his thigh, cuddling on the coach or just giving him a much needed massage. A little touching can go a very long way!
Show your affection: Just because you have a baby doesn't mean you have to stop flirting. Send him a sweet text message during the day or leave a love note in his bag for him to see when he gets to work. It doesn't take too much time or effort and can make all the difference.
Compliment each other: It's easy to nag and complain when you haven't slept in days. But show him you still care by giving him at least one compliment a day. Maybe you really like the way his arms looked in a particular shirt or the way he shaved that day, either way make sure to let him know that you've taken notice!
Send him sexy messages: I highly recommend sending sexy texts or leaving sex coupons in his coat pocket to give him something to look forward to when he gets home. It could be something as simple as "20 minute shower time" or more risqué like "30 minute lap dance tonight."
