Boing Boing

I'm sorry about all the baby talk that is on here at the moment but I must admit that I normally feel quite in control and sort of knowledgeable about things but...

Oh Dear, am I naive about pregnancy/childbirth and everything that comes with it or what?

Had to go on a bra-fitting for a nursing bra yesterday and Oh My GAAAAAWD! They're huge! Not that I haven't noticed their 'increase' but to get it in actual numbers!! And because they measure in inches rather than cm I had to have a sneaky peak at the conversion chart and I felt sick and started to hyperventilate a little. (The lady was really nice and helped me loads. I owe her sooo much!) I mean, I can still remember being a 75B!*

Anyway, the backstrap size turned out better than I thought in the end but the cupsize.... Holy guacamole. I told Boyfriend and he was quite excited; "Niiice, that's the kind of measurement the glamour models have!" and then he continued to think up names the tabloids would use** i.e. The Busty Blonde and I think there was something "witty" about big vegetables***. But I reminded him that those girls don't have the measurements I have in 'other' places - you would hardly see an arse like mine on page 3 - it simply wouldn't fit, even if it was a 2 page spread.

* Ok, the increase in number changed because I started to eat more and exercise less but I liked 'B' - it's such a nice letter...
**the Brits have an awful knack for horrible puns and names - especially the tabloids.
