I will say it again. Boobs are weird.
Well, yeah. And mine seem to be going against the sizing wisdom up there. Hmmm.
Of course, I also firmly believe there is no bra that will ever be truly comfortable to wear all day, so.
Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

“Not dead yet!”
I have the classic one side is bigger than the other, so I always have a cup that's got some, erm, room in it. Especially if I lose weight. The difference becomes less pronounced the more weight I gain. Which is STUPID.

I have bras in a few different styles, and I find that the ones that fit best seems to change daily. One day, one seems to gap at the cup, next time I try it fits like a glove. Another day, another bra will fit great, the next time I try it, the band pinches. My weight isn't changing that much, so it must be hormonal swelling and water retention. It is crazy making.

I just read Teppy's link and now I'm convinced my bras are all the (really) wrong size.

Yeah, I'm currently probably a 34DDD, but good luck in finding that in the shape I am. Feh.

I'm actually okay once I find a style (surprisingly there is a maidenform style that really works for me and it's cheapish to boot).
But ugh.
My other ish is pants. After having a c-section, my entire midsection is fucked up, yo. Nothing fits right.
Basically I look like shit.
We finished Grace's nursing training this morning. Dear god, changing the g-tube is NOT what I like to do. But giving her meds is so much easier than it was for Noah. Put it in the tube. Add water. Done.
This afternoon, for the first time ever, I felt like a mom of twins. Noah was in Grace's crib. She is doing this headbanging thing that I don't love. And Noah looked at her and started doing it. She is laughing like crazy at him. I'm trying to get them both to stop. One would look at me, stop, and then look at the sibling, start laughing and do it again. Neither would listen.
Then when we were walking, Noah was holding Grace's hand and she headbutt him and started laughing.
The two of them together are starting to be a handful.

I'm currently a 34 band size, and a cup size that leaves me with a choice of about two styles of bra. I'm pretty sure that, when I lose a little more weight, I'll be a 32 band, which will leave me with approximately one bra.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I read that article and I am not sure what it means.
But it might explain why no bra is comfortable. And why underwires move too much and stab me

Ah, Noah and Grace, tagteaming mom...Love that they are interacting, though. Touch less headbanging would be good.

Headbanging is, sadly, sort of fun when you're two.
The Noah and Grace duo is adorable, though.
