B00bies

6/11/08 An editorial note, please excuse the odd typing. However, google analytics informed me that my blog was being read by people searching some of those terms. Not the readership I'm going for!

T@-t@s, h00ters, bre@stestes, bre@sts. I want mine back. I weaned the baby this month and lost my bre@sts along with the milk. I woke up one morning and they were gone. They were already on their way down, but went from overfilling a 32b to barely filling a 32a in one night. After a couple of weeks at a c cup. I cried and am still on the verge of tears about it. It's not exactly a body image thing. My idea of my beauty or sexu@l appeal is not tied to the size of my bre@sts, per se. It is tied to how I look overall and I look better in clothes other than tees, but those are cut and sewn for bre@sts that are larger than mine. Nothing "tailored" fits my chest. I'm very upset. I was really looking forward to buying nice-ish clothes - I'm done being the mommy in jeans and t-shirts everyday!!
What about alterations you say? This is not a hem. To change the shape of a shirt it has to be taken apart, cut and sewn back together. It would cost more than I can afford to spend on a shirt in the first place.
My mom just picked up all 3 kids for an overnight - a first for the baby - because tonight my husband is taking me out for our anniversary. I'm taking these next couple of hours to shop for a strapless bra and shoes. I'd LOVE to be able to say that I happened to find some great shirts too. LOVE IT. Cross your fingers that I'm either successful or don't break down in tears in the fitting room.
