Breastfeeding, Sex and Breast Milk Fetishes
How does breastfeeding
affect my wife’s sex drive?
Any new mother whether
breastfeeding or not needs time to heal from giving birth. As to whether the
breastfeeding mother has more or less sex drive than the bottlefeeding mother,
the jury is out. Some studies indicate that breastfeeding mothers are less
interested in sex after childbirth (Byrd 1988; Glazener 1997; Visness and
Kennedy 1997) while other studies conclude that breastfeeding mothers are
more sexually active than their formulafeeding counterparts (Al Bustan 1995).
At any rate, breastfeeding mothers may need a little more foreplay and assistance.
A husband can help his wife get in the mood by speaking her “love language.”

Some women find their libidos significantly change while breastfeeding;
many women experience heightened sexual desire, while others crave less
sex. Sore and tender breasts, vaginal dryness and fatigue were all factors
that made sexual relations infrequent.

Other complications,
such as health problems with the baby, may leave mothers feeling disappointed
or vulnerable and decrease their desire for sexual intimacy. Low estrogen
levels during breastfeeding are attributed to a lower interest in sex
and may cause vaginal dryness. For nursing mothers, the dynamics of
the nursing relationship itself can affect a couple's sexual intimacy.
Most fathers just need reassurance that the mother's lack of sexual
desire isn't a rejection of him. The following may help you to have
sex while breastfeeding.
1.
Try other sexual positions.
2.
Avoid having your breasts fondled.
3.
Consider wearing a bra with nursing pads in place.
4.
Use a lubricant.
5.
Be patient.

Many women consider the time that dads spend doing household chores
a true sign of love and caring, which, in turn, helps mothers to relax
and feel more positive. Breastfeeding mothers tend to feel more comfortable
and relaxed when they are close to their babies. The couple can spend
private time at home or take the baby out with them.

My wife’s breasts
squirt milk during sex.
For some women, the hormones
released during sexual intercourse trigger let-down of the milk. To diminish
the possibility, a mother can breastfeed the baby or express some milk beforehand.
Is breastfeeding
a sexual act?
No, breastfeeding is not
a sexual act.
I’m
curious what
breast milk
tastes like.
There are men out there with breast milk
fetishes and sex drive. If you don’t have a partner willing to share some
breast milk, you’re sorry out of luck. There are legitimate reasons for adults
to consume
breast milk.
Scientific evidence supports the promising anti-cancer powers of breast milk.
