I breastfed for two months and gave it up when I returned to work. The kid eats too much anyhow...I'd never make that much milk and find bras that fit.

I mean... you know how this whole thing works, right? Kind of like giving your kitty unlimited water?

I can't put my finger on why I feel this way, beyond maybe that I always think of my boobies as sexual parts of my body, because for me, they are one of my most sensitive spots and I love attention to them. I know they have a natural function, too, but I guess it's hard to imagine going back to treating them as second-class clits after having watched a baby use them for their REAL purpose. Any thoughts? Anyone else feel this way or get over this issue? FTR, I am not planning on a family, so no one get too concerned for future JerseySpawns.

Actually, I went from being a pretty smoking hot little ticket to Earth Mother in a hurry. I'm not (3 kids later) some crazy-ass combination of both. ;)

And @Her Grace is right - if it's something that stays with you, that's not necessarily immature either.
I know with v.01 my husband was a little freaked at the idea, given his somewhat proprietary interest in what he'd finally managed to claim as "his!" via marriage, but he seemed to get over that pretty quickly too. (Not that he had any damned choice in the matter.)

And this might make me weird or selfish, but if I have to spend 9 months growing this damn thing, I want to KEEP my special connection to it.

I suppose other methods would be fine too, this is just the one they happened to include in their conversation.

I wish more men felt like that, or would at least express it. Most of them don't.
