And one in 12 busy couples admitted sex lasts less than a minute.

Despite couples having fewer romps after parenthood, 47 per cent of dads say their sex life is better than ever — but just 29 per cent of mums agree.

Siobhan Freegard, of ChannelMum.com which polled 1,776 parents, said: “It isn’t about how long something takes, but how much you enjoy it. So well done to the minute men.”

Researchers also found the most popular venue for a quickie for 42 per cent of parents is the playroom or living room when kids have gone to bed.
