Do you still see your breast as erogenous as before if you didn’t breastfeed ?

Hi :)

I am 6 months pregnant and I have been under treatment to lower my blood pressure for 2 months :/ Fortunately the baby and I are fine
I was very disappointed I wouldn’t be able to breastfeed because of the medication as it is very important in both of my families :(
But I just read many women had noticed their breast felt less sensitive and uncomfortable after breastfeeding.
Is that true ?
It is also relevant if you DONT breastfeed ? Just so I know if I have to mourne the loss of my biggest erogenous zone
Thanks ! :)

This is my problem. My baby is 7 month pregnant and can't face sex as I just onto see myself as sexy or feel sexy because of milk boobs. Its horrible.

I never saw my Breasts as erogenous zones.
All breasts look a bit like udders and I don’t get the attraction personally.

I didn't much like involving my boobs in sex when I was in the relatively intense phase of bfing an under 6 month old, although I had no problem feeling sexy. It went back to normal after that although I fed until my DC was 2.5. Same thing this time but I'm confident again it will wear off. They've never felt less sensitive or uncomfortable other than when overfull, in fact I enjoy their increased size.

Honestly bf is not the main barrier to sex for mothers of babies.

Breast feed three children for about six months each, can't say I've noticed a difference. The only change was that I ruled by boobs off limits during the months I was breast feeding, my own rule, I just felt they belonged to the baby then.

Also have you checked with the Breastfeeding Network and the Drugs in Breastmilk helpline about your ability to breastfeed on your blood pressure medication? There aren't many medications where you truly can't breastfeed.

BF DD1 14 months and DD2 12 months. My boobs are still my biggest erogenous zone. No loss of sensation or anything OP. Like a PP they were out of bounds while I was BF too.
