Breastfeeding my husband brought us closer — Mother of Three

A mother of three children has revealed that she breastfeeds her husband. She claims it has not only made them closer, but is also good for his health.

Rachel Bailey, 30, is married to Alexander, also 30. Since Alexander started breastfeeding in 2017, the couple haven’t looked back.

Also, Rachel said Alexander hasn’t had a cold in two years and has since gotten plenty of compliments on his skin.

Alexander initially began drinking Rachel’s breastmilk to help her when she was over-lactating while nursing their children.

‘When my middle child, Aria, now six, was breastfeeding, I went away on a cruise with Alexander,’ she explained.

‘However, I forgot my breast pump and was badly engorged for two days.

‘I was in so much pain and I was scared about getting an infection, so we decided that my husband was going to try drinking the milk to relieve me.

‘We were nervous about the idea of him breastfeeding from me but as soon as we did it, we realized it was perfectly fine.’

Rachel said it was ‘an instant relief when Alexander latched on’.

‘On top of that, it has also created a more special bond between us which we never would have had if we didn’t start this,’ she added.
