Women often ask their doctors if breastfeeding to husband is okay.
Below are some aspects to weigh before that. Good for Your Husband There is no harm in breastfeeding to your husband; in fact the breasts can produce as much milk as required, just think about some mom breastfeeding 3 or more babies. You just need to drink plenty of fluids, eat healthy, and have enough rest. Possible Benefits for the Mom For the breastfeeding women themselves, breastfeeding to husband can relieve the pressure and discomfort if the baby's growth is slow and is not in need of too much milk. You may ask your husband to relieve the pressure in your breasts and provide comfort. Nowadays the problem is solved by pumps but women in earliertimesmay take benefit from their husbands.
Negative side effects
Negative Sides to Notice Yet, breastfeeding to husband can set a risk of transmitting diseases to the infant if your man is suffering from an acute infection such as cold virus. Also, remember that you'd better stop breastfeeding your husband while you find yourself pregnant. Otherwise, it will increase your chances of premature labor. Breast-touching is very common among many couples as foreplay and is totally safe, but actually feeding a man over 30 may affect the milk supply to the baby, if you have a low milk supply. Also, there will be immense drain from the mother, therefore the caloric intake should be high enough to supply for both the baby and the man.
Conclusion Ensure that your husband does not have infections in his body to avoid the risk of transmission to the baby.
Doctors suggest feeding the baby first, and you may reserve one side for husband and other for the baby. Some women would like to breastfeed to husband to avoid wasting the milk, while some concern about whether such an act will affect the baby's psyche health. Whatever, it is a thing that involves both of you, so communication is essential.

It is true that the wife should try to please the husband as much as she can, but this does not allow her to break the rules of Shariah. Therefore, you should try your best to explain to your husband that it is sinful to take in the milk, and make him understand that he should fear Allah and not cross the borders of Shariah in fulfilling his desires.
However, if he still does not understand and insists on doing this action, and further denial could lead to the breaking of the marriage, then you should allow him to do as he pleases and he will be held responsible for his sins. Your duty now will be to save the marriage as far as possible.

For christians
While some of us may think this is odd, I certainly can’t find where the bible speaks against this.
I do see where breasts are mentioned to give nutrition to infants, and I also see where breasts are mentioned as sexual organs between a husband and a wife in the Song of Solomon.
I also found this scripture:
Proverbs 5:18-20 (New Living Translation)
18 Let your wife be a fountain of blessing for you. Rejoice in the wife of your youth.
19 She is a loving deer, a graceful doe.
Let her breasts satisfy you always.
May you always be captivated by her love.
It would seem to me, that God is saying that it is okay for a husband and his wife to enjoy her breasts in all their glory. I don’t see any rules or commandments limiting breast play.
