Nipples

Gotta strange question for you ladies...whenever I rub, pump or nurse my left nipple I get a tingling sensation in my left leg--normal? Nerve damage? Anyone else experience this? Also the nipple itself feels tingly too when touched.

    I was just researching the same thing! I get it in my feet on both sides depending on which breast I'm feeding from (both if pumping). I just read an article about sciatica that mentioned it while Breastfeeding. It said to sit straight up with feet on the floor and baby raised on a pillow or support. I've been using a reclined "dancer" position on the advice of an LC, so I think that might be why I am experiencing it (although I have had it while sitting straight up and pumping). 

    Are you reclining while you are BF?
