Wife ‘Felt She Had No Other Option’ But To Breastfeed Husband
Read on, this is serious talk only.
Jennifer is not new to breastfeeding as this is her second child already, but she shared on TikTok how it hadn’t gone smoothly on her second child. She wasn’t able to feed her baby milk as she’s got her channels clogged due to an infection.
The Alaskan mother was desperate and finally took a really weird, but actually working, method to fix it.
She captioned her TikTok clip with ‘I breastfed my husband’ which is exactly what happened. Jennifer was diagnosed with mastitis and she had tried many methods from pumping, antibiotics, but none helped and nothing was coming out when she tried to feed Adelina, her second daughter.
She spoked, “There are some things in marriage and having babies that you just can’t prepare for. And this is one of them. This weekend, I started having pain in my right breast… I’m breastfeeding, so I figured it was a clogged milk duct, which happens frequently for some people.”
“But I ended up getting a fever and it was mastitis, so I got antibiotics.”
“I found this article – because I was just Googling and Googling – that said your partner should suck the clog out.
“Mind you, I never in a million years would have ever considered letting my husband breastfeed off of me. Nor has he ever wanted to, I should clarify.”
“And I know that that can be a kink…” she attempted to explain that there’s no shaming that, but it’s just not her cup of tea. “No. Just no.”
“I mentioned it to my husband. I was like, ‘Do you want to help me out?’ He was like, ‘I would do that for you, but I might gag, I might throw up, but I’ll do that for you.'”
“So we did it. We got this bowl, and we went into the side so he could spit it out.”
It worked. It actually, probably, was the easiest solution to the problem.
Jennifer gave her review on the suckling, “I feel like I have PTSD. It worked. He cleared the blockage. I feel like I can’t look you guys in the eye right now.
“But yeah, at the beginning, he got a small taste of it. He was like, ‘This is actually really sweet.'”
“But then at the end, when he unclogged it, he basically was about to gag, because it started flowing because the clog was gone. And that was enough, enough. I feel like we’re bonded for life.”
With more than 12.8 million views, the man actually gave it a “10/10” in a subsequent video that takes his perspective in.

“Don’t wanna admit it was a 10/10,” said the man. It appears that a lot of mothers who’ve had similar experiences shared that it can get overwhelming when it’s unclogged as it just flows out. Which was probably why he gagged a bit at the end.
So many users were complimenting the husband for helping out despite it not being his thing at all. Some were joking about how it may have opened a new door for them and one pointed out a benefit, “And if you’re lactose intolerant, that milk won’t make your tummy hurt.”
Love does make you do things.
