The buffet is closed.

It's amazing what you stumble upon while Googling.

I am currently breastfeeding, and my husband keeps asking me if he can have some too. Is it normal for me to breastfeed him as well? I don't mind . . . I'm just afraid that he won't leave enough for the baby. Help! What should I do?

Um, I have a few ideas.

At the risk of outing myself as a total prude, this post made me scrunch up my face. Maybe it's because I've literally squirted myself in the eye with my boob juice but there is nothing - NOTHING - erotic to me about breastfeeding. It can be sweet, sure, and you do release all kinds of lovely hormones but the thought of anyone other than an infant using my teat as a teat gives me the yicks. I tried to keep an open mind when I read this (whatever keeps the home fires burning!) but I simply can't understand the turn on. And at what point does the husband bring it up? When she's unhooking her sad, stained nursing bra? When the baby's in the middle of his morning nursing poo? While his wife is screaming and cursing because the baby's just bitten her for the fourth time in 20 minutes and she is done, done, done! Seriously. No.

Please see my comment from the last post. I believe it applies here as well.

"Is it NORMAL to bf him as well"?!

Um...lady...do you have to ASK if it's normal to BF your HUSBAND?!

Ahhh!

Sorry. If we were talking about a toddler, that would be one thing. Husband needs a good kick in the pants. He's taking baby envy WAAAAY too far. Bleah!
