this might be a stupid question

ok ladies so i have a question...i just had my baby 6 days ago. im not directly breastfeeding but i am pumping out milk from my breast so the question is whenever its time to start my sex life again are my breasts going to hurt like they do now? i love when my hubby kisses on my breasts, will i still be in pain, if he suxs on my tits will milk come out? im asking all this because u have never breastfeed before please help me ladies! thanks in advanced

i had the problem that if i got excited my milk leaked on it's own, happened when i was pregnant and after i had her... so it didn't wait to see if he sucked what would happen...

Mine are like faucets I swear, if I don't feed every two hours they are like waterhoses, I can fill up the heavy duty breatpads in a couple of hours.... Even if my husband thinks about touching them they go off lol

Yup, they will leak. I'm doing the same thing with pumping and bottle feeding, but I haven't had the pain.

oh yes it sucked... we actually around 6months pregnant stopped having sex because it bother him to much between the big belly, giant leaking boobs, and scared he'd put me into labor... so from then until somewhere between 6-7wks after Lana was born we did nothing... huge bummer...

I pumped too, and my milk dried up (not completely) I think a month and a half after I had my daughter. 18 months later I still leak every now and then. It sucks....last time my husband and I fooled around he said that he could get milk out of my boob still. It's really annoying because he used to always play with them and when he was home on R&R, he wouldn't because he got milk out of them.

Try to think of it as the "new normal." It never really bothered either of us though we found it handy to have a rag nearby.  

bf helps w/the soreness. why are you not directly nursing????
