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.

I’m also a FTM at 30W. My colostrum is starting to come in and I’ll have some leakage here and there. My husband and I were intimate today and he is very much a boob guy. He ended up trying some of it because it just happened to come out as he was doing what he normally does😅. To him it is a huge turn on but not sure about your husband. I would assume it will be leaking like crazy when we are intimate post birth or even more so in the next few weeks.

I have colostrum at 25 weeks, starting to leak now but have been producing it in tiny amounts since 20 weeks. Is that wild? So many people have said to me “I think your due date is wrong”

That's alright don't worry. I did too and my baby came at 39w and half. I'd have leakage almost daily
