Let's Talk About Size

Breast size that is.

Since having my daughter ten months ago, I'm actually far more comfortable in my own skin. While at a healthy weight before becoming pregnant it was the higher end of normal and I'm now on the lower end of normal no thanks to far better eating and drinking water like it's going out of style....and nursing of course.

Before having my daughter I had pretty good boobs. Not too big, not to small. Then I got pregnant and went up and my husband was in his glory (not like I let him touch them ;) ) Then I gave birth and my milk came in and it was like porn star boobs. And my husband was even happier. Eventually my supply regulated and my boobs went back to pre-pregnancy size, maybe even a touch smaller. Because they were on the smaller size to begin with they are still in the same place(which is pretty much all I care about, don't want saggy boobs in my 20's)

So the point to all this.

Last night we were watching a rerun of Two and a Half Men. It was the episode where Charlie's fiancee Chelsea wants a reduction because she is having back problems. So my brilliant husband tells me that's the size he wants mine to be. IMHO her boobs aren't that much bigger than my pre-pregnancy boobs and that her cleavage is a plunging v-neck top, double sided tape and a $300 pushup bra. Doesn't believe me. So I go get my $50 pushup bra and a v-neck top. Big difference from my nursing tank top. Still not enough.

What do you want from me?! I'm super comfortable and confident in what my body looks like, especially after having a child and you want to take that down a peg. I've never made comments about his package, why is it ok to make comments about a woman's breasts?
