So, do you keep your bra on...

During sex if you're breastfeeding? Probably a stupid question, but getting back on the saddle so to speak and am feeling a bit like they belong to dd at the moment rather than dh (I know they belong to me but I hope you get what I mean). Probably should have name changed for this!

I never have done, but I don't see why you shouldn't if it makes you feel more comfortable :)

Fontsnob · 18/11/2010 23:50

Thanks Bertie. It's the leaking that bothers me I think, so not sexy. Blush

I must confess that I do but it's only in the last week that leakage (DD 14 weeks) has slowed down, up until then I pretty much needed a bra on 24/7 or I had milk running all over the place!

BertieBotts · 19/11/2010 00:05

Yes the leakage definitely slows down so don't worry!

Have you seen the "hot milk" bras etc? That way you can keep your bra on and still feel sexy Wink

Fontsnob · 19/11/2010 00:11

I think it'll take more than a nice bra to feel sexy at the moment....do they do lace wetsuits (in a cover up my entire body way not some strange fetish way)!?

Hi Fontsnob, I'm exactly the same they feel like 'working boobs' now :). I get what you are saying that they are there for DD now and for some reason they don't like multitasking Grin.

mollycuddles · 19/11/2010 05:01

I do. Dh can look but not touch. I'm not sure when but at some point between dd1 and 2 they became sexy again (to me - seems they remain sexy to dh at all times apart from when there's a breast pump involved!)

WickedWitchSouthWest · 19/11/2010 05:19

My ds is 5 months now and I've only ditched the bra this week. Like you I didn't want to freak out dh with leaking issues and seeing as I have a strong let down it could be quite explosive Grin. So far so good, and I've managed to switch off the part of my brain that says 'working boobs for ds only'!

Fontsnob · 19/11/2010 22:01

Thanks ladies, glad I'm not the only one that struggles with anti multitasking boobs!

Fontsnob · 19/11/2010 22:10

Was he lactating too? Grin

thecaptaincrocfamily · 19/11/2010 22:14

This is such a great question lol, luckily DH found the leakage quite errotic but I thought that was wierd Grin

Grin yep that makes it worse but worth it Wink

marriednotdead · 19/11/2010 22:59

This thread is making me rofl Grin

I used to wear something sexyish over my hideous nursing bras, was way too leaky to go without.

Agree multitasking boobs felt weird.

Fontsnob · 19/11/2010 23:40

Oh bloody hell don't want to end up being an erotic leaky fountain!!

OP posts:
cinnamongreyhound · 20/11/2010 03:31

Never wore one but then I also take it off to sleep, put a towel in bed rather than have to wear a bra at night. Although second time around haven't leaked anywhere near as much. My DH also likes the milk and I have no problems multi tasking, ds was/is asleep they don't need them so I enjoy them Blush

blackteaplease · 20/11/2010 09:11

My dd is 10.5 months and I've only just started letting dh have access without a bra. Before this I was too freaked out by the thought of leaking that I wouldn't let him anywhere near them. I still sleep with a bra on too which I didn't pre dc.

Porcelain · 20/11/2010 15:35

Dh also finds leakage erotic, something about womanliness. I can handle that just about, but not when he tries to steal the runoff.

If I'd fed just before, breasts were emptyish and therefore no chance of leaking, never did the deed just before a feed...
