Anyone who has ever met me has noticed my boobs. Some say I am blessed with these 100% natural 34DD's, while I consider myself cursed (damn me for praying when I was younger for large boobs when I grew up... be careful what you wish for!). I do my best to not draw attention to them, but sometimes it's hard to hide them. Many of you may not know this, but I fear getting breast cancer. When I was in my early 20s, I had to get ultrasounds done for some lumps the doctor found. They never called me back, but every time I see an OBGYN doctor, they always make a face and jot down the same 1 & 10/11 o'clock location on one of the breasts. Last time I was in CA, I had to get my ultrasound disk for my MA PCP to see if they could compare the suspicious areas, but then was told that they needed a radiologist to read them and that they would charge me to have her do so. First, can they not read the radiologists notes on the disk, I'm pretty sure I could since I've been reading words since I was 5! Second, are they not trained enough to look at slides and notice any suspicious areas, I'm pretty sure the doctor's on Grey's could! Third, if I keep seeing different doctors (PA, PCPs, OBGYN's) how will there be documentation on any changes over the years?? So of course, nothing further has been done. Well, the last few days, I've had aching pains in those "suspected" spots. I don't know how many of my girlfriends actually do self exams, but let me tell you this. I try, but I have no idea what I'm really feeling, what should be there and what shouldn't be there. I also can't poke around too long otherwise I start feeling nauseous (yeah, no way in hell I could be a doctor). So for all you girls who are jealous of my bra size, let me tell you why you shouldn't be.
Try finding cute bras that can be worn with thin strapped clothing.
The bras for these babies cost more.
You can't really sleep on your stomach b/c it's uncomfortable.
You can't go bra-less under a cute top or dress.
The larger they are, the denser they can be making it harder to find lumps that shouldn't be there.
There's a lot of cute outfits out there that you simply can't wear b/c they don't make them big enough.
You can't help but feel self conscious after having one too many guys stare at you.
Running and jumping are impossible (and uncomfortable) not to mention damaging which can cause them to sag.
They get in the way (like when you're trying to pass through in a crowded T, bus or club)
They bounce a lot more than the fake ones, and guys, it's not comfortable!
I cringe thinking about how much they could grow if I ever become pregnant.
Good luck finding a comfortable bra- if they do exist, I have yet to find one.
