Pump in front of DH?

Just out of curiosity, does anyone pump in front of their BF, SO, DH?

Re: Pump in front of DH?

  • DH has even held them for me...

  • I don't BF anymore but when I was pumping, I did it in front of my boyfriend. It was a little weird the first time but it was NBD. He was a little disturbed when he would look over and see it lol

  • As a husband who see his wife pump everyday with whatever that tent is she puts on her chest to hold the bottles in place, it is no big deal.

    Those breast are not for me at the moment, and my son makes sure of it each and everyday, so the sexiness of the boob is gone right now.  It will return, but right now they look like a machine to me.  A milk machine.

  • Glad to hear a mans POV, I do pump in front of DH, obviously it is not sexy, but I have a little 'pumping station' set up, and it is nice for DH to be able to hold the baby while I pump and I not be sentenced to another room.  Glad to hear it is not a big deal.  :)
  • Yup.  He laughs and says it sounds like the machine is saying "Woo hoo!  Woo hoo!"
  • Of course. We have so much less quality time together these days, I can't imagine going away to pump when we could easily be sitting on the couch together, talking or watching tv while I do it.

  • All the time! He's helped me do it a few times too. He laughs and makes jokes but he still loves them when we get intimate :)

  • yup dh would sit on the couch next to me.  it's not like he was sitting there staring at it (well maybe once or twice).

    i didn't even consider pumping somewhere else.  however, DH is the only one I'd pump in front of.

  • Yup, all the time. It's really no big deal. DH has seen much worse than that in the past 2 months. Like PP, DH is the only one I would pump in front of.

  • Oh yes... after he saw a baby come out of my va-jay-jay, pumping is nothing!

  • Yep! The first time he sat and starred at me lol. My son even walked in on me once. It is something I need to do and I'm not about to feel uncomfortable in my own house.

  • These boobies are so not sexual right now, in any shape or form, so it's really nbd if my husband sees my milk machine in action. He knows what they're there for.

  • Yup. I've also pumped in front of my mom, friends and MIL. No biggie.

  • I pump in front dh, I've pumped in the backseat of my Mil's car on the way somewhere, and my best friends car as well. I pump under my shirt. After a c section and two lc's manually expressing clogged ducts while I was in the hospital I don't really have much modesty left....

  • Another DH POV....

    My and wife and I do everything together. BF, change nipple pads, etc., she had an emergency c-section so I'm there to help her with everything while she heals and if I need to be in the room while pumping...so be it. I don't mind at all.

  • I do.. never even thought about being discreet in front of him- after all he watched me give birth nothing compares to that.

  • All the time!  We made a baby and he saw me give birth, so I figure modesty is out the window!
