        God I hope so. I mean I’ve loved it so far but it has been a bit slow in some aspects, like I’ve still got like next to no breast growth

          Unfortunately that’s the thing that takes the longest 😭 I didn’t notice much for the first two years or so really. These days I’m a C cup and am so happy, so patience is key!

            don’t forget to take real measurements and use the bra size calculators! C cups are in reality rather small and properly sized bras fit so much better!

            (if you’re already doing this, carry on)

              yeah, I’ve been measured a couple times in addition to doing it myself. I’m sized properly.

              a word of advice: if a woman describes to you a part of her body she is really happy with the size of, don’t come along and call their breasts “rather small” 🙃

                sorry didn’t mean it like that. a lot of people don’t know to get measured properly and end up using bras that are too small cause companies want to make money off of fewer sizes.

                  I figured as much, maybe just err on the side of not making comments about people’s body size or shape.

                  you are right though, companies don’t want to make a good variety of sizes. I was stuck in a couple sizes that were super hard to find for a while. now I can just get a cheap bra at target if I need, which came in handy on a trip recently

      Did your brain pog out immediately when you started on it? I’ve heard it’s like a switch flips and that seems super affirming

        Yeah, the first day starting it was one of the best days in my entire life. The excitement kind of died down a little over the following week as it became normal to me, but like it’s change my emotions so fucking much. It’s like putting glasses on or something like that, it’s a lot clearer. I laugh and smile so much more, but I also cry a lot more
