He is very eager to taste my milk. She is in private practice in Eastern Pennsylvania. Many couples enjoy the added element that lactating breasts add to sexual play and except in a few special circumstances this practice should be safe for you, your husband and your baby. The most common special instance during which I would discourage this practice is when mother, father or baby have an active yeast infection. If anyone in the family is suffering from a yeast infection it should be treated and resolved before oral-breast contact occurs.
Yeast infections are very common and easily spread.
It can be spread by sexual contact, breastfeeding, oral contact and on your hands. It also survives on surfaces, like the shower floor, breast pump equipment, bath towels and burp cloths. It can be very difficult to eradicate. Once the yeast infection is cleared oral-breast contact can be resumed. Another somewhat common condition that may preclude oral-breast contact between sexual partners is an active herpes infection.
