Nipple question

Alright, weird question. My girls have always been a huge part of my sex life. I absolutely love DH paying attention to them. So my questions are:
1. I'm struggling between exclusively pumping and actually breast feeding because that is a huge part of my sex life, and I'm worried about that being ruined mentally for me.
2. After you were finished breastfeeding, did that part of your sexuality come back into play?

Re: Nipple question

  • Loading the player...
  • I agree with @etayislove. I had the same concerns before having my daughter but everything worked out just fine for me. They really are two completely different things. When you're breastfeeding you're not thinking about nipple stimulation and when you're having "sexy time" you're not thinking about breastfeeding your baby. Good luck to you!!
  • They are completely disjoint. Breastfeeding however, increased my sensitivity making the time more enjoyable. I never knew I liked them so much until after I breastfed.
  • Thanks ladies! I was worried about those wires crossing in my brain and making it completely non sexual for me in the future.
  • I don't think you'll get the wires crossed however, he might want to be a little carful. He could end up with a mouth full. I had to keep my sleep nuring bras on for months even during because I'd leak so much and hose him down. I don't think we added my boobs back into the game for awhile.

    This. I don't think we used the girls until I was done BFing.
  • It is harder when BFing because they're just so darn sensitive and things can get messy. But I found it to actually be better after weaning.
  • Ditto PPs. But know that not everyone is a leaker. I never was. I wore pads to work just in case but really didn't need to, it was never an issue for me. So you may not have a mess to deal with, it just depends on your body.
  • Yes to the leaking. I wore bras with pads for the first few months. To sleep and for sex that is. Then, once they were more manageable, I finally was able to leave it off. Whoo hoo! Still, sometimes I would leak and make a mess but we were aware of the possibilities and it was nbd.
  • After the first couple months I only leaked while BFing on the opposite side. Never had any leaking during fun times :) I had tearing and a long recovery, so we weren't fooling around in that time period anyway.
