When Kendra Wilkinson was busy being on Dancing with the Stars, it meant sacrificing precious time for something else that's very important in her life – sex.

But the former Girls Next Door star says once she got booted from ABC's hit show, she and husband Hank Baskett started heating up between the sheets again.

"My body's back," Wilkinson, 25, recently told PEOPLE. "I need to hang up on my stripper pole again."

With all the baby-making behavior, does that mean Wilkinson and Baskett are trying for child number two?

"Hank and I need a couple more drunken nights," the Ab Cuts spokeswoman says. "We need to get drunk and have crazy sex a couple more times."

Asked if being intimate has improved since DWTS, Wilkinson nodded and said, "Yeah, oh my god, yeah.

Aside from a new lease on her sex life, Wilkinson says she loves the way being a Dancing alum feels in general.

Participating on the show "was a perfect new start to my new life," she says. "It really proved that I could be sexy with some clothes on. Not a lot of clothes, but it proved to myself that I can do something like this."

Kendra Wilkinson got more than just 6th place on Dancing With the Stars -- she got her former body back! "I feel like I look so much better than I used to!" Kendra reveals during her exclusive Life & Style photo shoot. "I was a size 2 or 4 before Dancing With the Stars and now I'm a size 0. My waist is still shrinking! When you work out, you produce so much lactic acid, so my body always looks thicker and more muscular. Now that I've had a couple of weeks off, my body is fuller and looks better. I hope I'll look like this forever. But to be honest, I will never be satisfied!"

Kendra reveals that a combination of Ab Cuts' fat-burning supplements and a diet of natural foods helped to keep her fit. "Ab Cuts and fruits and veggies are my answer," Kendra explains. "When you're eating bad, you end up getting bacteria overgrowth. When you eat well, your body naturally cleanses itself."

The former Girl Next Door publicly struggled to reclaim her famous Playboy body following son Hank's December 2009 birth where she gained 60 pounds of baby weight. Although she's dropped the weight, it hasn't stopped her from thinking about baby no. 2. "I'm worried about gaining the weight back," she says to Life & Style. "but motherhood is worth it."

So what will be different next time? "I've learned my lesson with the first child," Kendra says. "I'm determined to be healthier and treat my body better." Hubby Hank Baskett is just as excited for her new toned body. "Hank loves my new body," she tells Life & Style. "He says this is the most beautiful I've ever looked." And while Hank can't wait to add onto their growing family, for now the two are reconnecting in the bedroom. "He's ready [for another baby], but we're just having fun being young parents to Hank for now," she adds.

Kendra Wilkinson learned more than the tango during her time on Dancing with the Stars.

After her surprise elimination Tuesday night, the reality star says she's seeing things from a whole new perspective.

"I had the most amazing time, but after seven weeks of being on Dancing with the Stars, it actually made me think about real life," Wilkinson, 25, tells Parade. "I know what true love is now – and that's, of course, my son and my husband."

Continues Wilkinson: "Every now and then it's cool to get dressed up and glamorous, but at the end of the day, I love what's real and what's real is family ... I'm so happy that I get to be a mom again!"

Wilkinson, who has one son – 1½-year-old Hank Jr. – with her pro-football-playing husband Hank Baskett, has some simple tips for other mothers who might be struggling.

"My number one piece of advice to all moms is to just breathe," she says. "Take time for yourself, even if it's just going to the bathroom and taking a couple breathers. Take at least five minutes out of the day for yourself – you need it, you deserve it."

Wilkinson also pays tribute to one of the major benefits of being on DWTS.

"My body is so great now," she says. "The different dances did different things, like the Latin dances would shape my thighs and my calves and my butt because of all the twisting. And it would make you sweat, that's the real calorie burner right there."

"But the Viennese waltz and the tango, it's all in the legs," she says. "You're doing a full squat for two minutes. It's more intense than anybody would think. My body's back into shape and I'm so happy."

After seven weeks of rocky performances, Kendra Wilkinson was voted off Dancing With the Stars on Tuesday night.

"Some flowers bloom early, some flowers bloom late, and you've been a late blossoming girl," judge Len Goodman, 67, reassured the E! reality star. "The last few weeks you've really come on."

How did Wilkinson -- who was in the bottom three with Kirstie Alley, 60, and Chelsea Kane, 22 -- take the news?

"I've lasted seven weeks, which is seven weeks longer than I ever thought I would last," she said. "I want to thank Louis [van Amstel] for sticking with me and not fighting me."

Now that she's out of the competition -- only Alley, Kane, Romeo, Hines Ward and Ralph Macchio remain -- Wilkinson can finally get back to her daily routine.

"Baby Hank, I'm coming home for you!" the proud mom, 25, exclaimed. "I may not the best dancer, but I am the best mom."

From the ballroom to the bedroom!

Turns out the judges weren't the only ones raving about Kendra Wilkinson's sultry moves on Monday's Dancing With the Stars. The 25-year-old Playboy alum's husband, Hank Baskett, was highly impressed with her hip shaking.

"Right after the [team] dance tonight we walked over to Hank and he said, 'Honey! I didn't know you could do the splits!'" Wilkinson's pro partner, Louis van Amstel, told Us Weekly after the pair took part in a group cha-cha routine with Kirstie Alley, Hines Ward and their partners.

Wilkinson says the flexibility tricks she's learned during her DWTS stint have come in handy behind closed doors.

"It's definitely great," Wilkinson told Us of the impact DWTS has had on her and Baskett's sex life. "If you come to my trailer after this you may see it moving back and forth. I'm definitely bringing the splits into the bedroom tonight!"

While Wilkinson relishes in DWTS' bedroom benefits, she admits to Us she worries about having the confidence to advance on the series.

"I have the physical, emotional [and] mental [strategy] to make it. But I'm still working on believing in myself," says Wilkinson, who also performed an intricate tango on Monday's show. "I have so much to offer and so much love and emotion to show. It's like a flower just starting to blossom, it's a process. Some flowers bloom overnight -- but not me!"
