My guy who's in his late 30's talks to his mother openly about breast feeding & womens external mucus & things like that. Am I the only woman who feels unfomfortable when he talks to his mother about these things when I am arround? Or would any of you men talk to your Mom about these things? Are they intimate issues or just a normal topic to discuss with your parents? Well the two of us are taking classes on naturalfamily planning. My class topic is about checking internal & external mucus for fertility & breast feeding. My man discusses the class topic to his Mom. He asked me in front of his mother for how long would I breast feed our child. I don't have any kids yet. I felt uncomfortable when he talked about it in front of his mom. He tries to be overly affectionate in front of his Mom too. I have pulled away many times because I know she doesn't like him showing me too much affection in front of her. I've talked to him about it but he do doesn't get it. What do I do?

Just tell him to chill out on the affection around other people. The "open-ness" isn't anything to worry about, if anything, be grateful he seems to have a good relationship with his family/mom. I personally dont think twice about talking about things like that with my mother, it's all natural type things he seems to be talking about so it's nothing directly associated with YOU as a person, seems to be more just female body related stuff.

It is normal to be open and honest with your mom even with those things if his mom is comfortable with the topics and conversation. It all depends on how he was raised and how close they are. It sounds like he grew up more knowing his mom as his best friend than his mom. I think it is good to have that wide range of topics to talk to someone you love< trust and depend on but i don't agree about the showing of too much affection in front of her no matter how close they are. There are limits and they shouldn't be crossed in front of a parent no matter how old the child is. I agree with that part of it but I hope my son when he grows up he will be able to talk to me about anything and everything and not be uncomfortable about it.

i would NEVER have this type of discussion with my mother. Of course, she's overbearing, demanding, and a bit of a control-freak... so i try not to tell her much of anything, for fear of being told how to live my life.
You need to sit your husband down and explain to him that some things need to remain in a private domain between a husband and his wife, rather than being made public for other family members to discuss at will.
What's stooping his mother from then going and talking to all of her friends about your internal and external mucus? that's just wrong, and to me, an HUGE invasion of my privacy and a violation of trust.

I would think he wouldn't keep doing this AFTER you've told him how you feel. Have you told him that he's creeping you out? If you had a closer bond with his Mother, I'm sure this wouldn't bother you so bad, but I'm weirded out by just putting myself into your shoes. I think it's time for a serious sit down between you two!

every person is distinctive - my husband talks brazenly along with his mum and his dad. I wasnt referred to like that and located it unusual before everything yet with the aid of the years i've got have been given used to it - its not extraordinary, its only being elementary and open. My daughter has only had a newborn and he or she and her companion consult with me and my husband in a similar open way - not something incorrect with that xxx

I think its strange but I dont think you should complain. Most men dont even want to get involved 1% of the time. Its nice that he's so into you and getting pregnant. Is he Jewish ? Most Jewish men and their mothers are like this.

He is insecure around his Mom. Get him some counseling.
