I don't mean this to sound gross, but how do you handle your breasts leaking milk when you are having sex? I am breastfeeding and I make alot of milk so I leak when I take my bra off. Does it bother men? My husband is serving in Iraq and our baby was born 5 weeks ago. I just want to know what to do about that when he comes home.

Some men really like that.
If it bothers you or your sweetie, just keep a sexy bra on when you go to bed.
If you are only 5 weeks post-partum, you may find that eventually you stop leaking so much once your body figures out how much milk you're supposed to be making. (I usually didn't leak so much after the first couple of months.)

By the time your husband comes home your baby will be at least 2months old. After breast feeding for a while, you develop a routine and your body will adjust to produce just enough milk at the times your baby needs it.
As far as if it bothers men, it depends. The milk leaking all over his chest and getting him sticky might be irritating. I was just sure to leave my bra on with breast feeding pads to absorb it.
Hope this helps.

In some cultures it incredibly is organic to breastfeed your new child till the age of 5. i think of it incredibly is extraordinary yet i think it relies upon on the place the mummy is. In places like Africa in some situations breast milk is the only nourishment they get the finished day. My mom in regulation breastfed her first son till he replaced into 2 and he's the best out of all 7 youngsters. I plan on breastfeeding all of my toddlers till they are 2 years old as this is cautioned in my faith and my husband needs me to breastfeed his youngsters for 2 years.

I would just wear a sexy bra and put some breast pads in it he'll never notice. When I was breastfeeding my guy did't seem bothered by the extra leakage at all. L.O.L

You dont notice till the milk starts to cool, thats when it starts to bug my hubby so we just keep a towel by the bed and cover them up so the towel catches all the milk. sometimes he forgets and tries to bite my nipples and gets squirted!! it rather funny!

well you should probably wait and see how long it's gonna be when he gets back. It may not even be a problem by then. If you are that worried about it then I would pump before your gonna have sex so there not so full to leak. Anyways...God Bless your husband. Hope he comes home to you soon. Thank him for serving our country.
