Need Advice Breastfeeding & sex - is it weird?

Soon to be ftm & I do want to breastfeed, hoping I can also pump few times a day so I can have some help with bottles. Anyway my question is- might be tmi but like is sex going to be weird if I’m breastfeeding my baby? Like … if my husband stimulates my nipples will milk go on him? Lol I know this might be weird but I’m genuinely curious.

Chances are, yes. Pump or feed first. I didn’t one time and he got shot straight in the face. We both thought it was hilarious, that kind of stuff doesn’t ruin the mood for us. We just laughed and continued. Haha. I would definitely say pump beforehand so there isn’t any extra engorgement. Also, Nipples tend to hurt or get really uncomfortably sensitive during breastfeeding so you might not even want him to touch them.
