“Desperate times called for desperate measures,” McAloon wrote after she forgot her pump during a vacation in Puerto Rico with her husband, Joshua.
“We were in Puerto Rico and, as you know, I’m breastfeeding, and I forgot to pack my pump for whatever reason,” she said in the video, which has garnered more than 189,000 views.
“My boobs are on fire,” she continued. “By the first day, I’m like, ‘Josh, I need you to help me out.’ And that’s what we did. I’m here to tell you, I had to breastfeed my husband.”
McAloon wrote as a caption that “the awkwardness was real.”
She cited marriage vows as the reason for asking her husband to do what he did.
“You know the part in your marriage vows, ‘For better or for worse?’ Well, I had to take my husband up on that this last week,” she said in the video.
Though some social-media users were understandably horrified, numerous commenters on the video approved of the action.
“Probably the best vacation ever for your husband,” wrote one person.
“I bet that job must have been so tough for him,” another wrote. “I wouldn’t say that was a bad thing…. In fact one my conclude that was the for better part of the marriage.”
Some even suggested that it was a husband’s dream.
“It’s hard to see other men living out your dream,” another TikTok consumer wrote.
