My New Favorite Quote:

"All can walk where Jesus walked when, with His words on our lips, His spirit in our hearts, and His teachings in our lives, we journey through mortality. I would hope that we would walk as he walked with confidence in the future, with an abiding faith in His Father, and with a genuine love for others." President Thomas S. Monson

Do your B**bs Hang Low

For the first time in 4 years I am neither pregnant or nursing. I have forgotten about a few things, like fasting, for one. I guess I will be fasting this next Fast Sunday (in a way I'm looking forward to it). I have also discovered that my baby feeders aren't what they were when I was pregnant or feeding babies, especially two babies at one time. Any of you who have nursed will know what I'm talking about. I no longer have bras that fit right. I need a little umph to perk them back up. They just sort of hang there. There's nothing in them to hold them up. Short of surgery, I guess the next best thing would be just stuffing them with a little something. Any suggestions? Is this horrible, I'm talking about fasting and b**bs in the same paragraph. I almost inserted a youtube video of a granny singing that song, but decided not to. I didn't want to promote all of the other stuff that went with that one. But I will leave you with this:
Did you hear about the old lady that decided she had had enough and figured it was time she was going to take her own life. She phoned the doctors office and asked where her heart was located. The reply, it's located underneath the left br**st. The next day she was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound to the left knee.

10 now let's hear it from you:

Fold them in half and then in half again. Then while you hold them like that have someone tear off one long piece of duct tape to go across your whole chest. They may have to go around a couple of times if they are extra saggy that day.

I used to belong to the 36 C Club. Now I belong to the 36 Long Club. Congratulations, you are the newest member.

If you are looking for a new bra, make sure it is padded. It helps some.

NO more pumping? Do you feel like the umbilical chord was finally cut?! You must feel like a new woman!

Yeah, litteraly the umbilical is cut. After I cracked the heck out of them, I decided 8 months of that was doing pretty good. It feels great to be done, but it was still a little hard to let go.

Sharon, you crack me up!
I still wish that you could have somehow rubbed a little of that excess off on my production ability. Then again, maybe I won't end up like that old lady! (Not to say they don't sag at all, but it certainly isn't that bad!) :-)

Oh my goodness! LOL!!! I can so relate to this post - Sad but true. Instead of nice melons I have HUGE Spaghetti squashes. Looking forward to hearing of the many things that can be done to rectify this act of gravity on my body.

That is exciting that you get your body back for a few days. Enjoy it while you can :) The experience is a great one but I agree that it can be quite bitter sweet. Moving on to that new phase. You are one great mamma... you should be proud of yourself. ;)

...good thing you don't have to use the old fashioned washer/ringer like our grandparents did. Can you imagine leaning over and getting your "t*t in a ringer" for real?

Ouch!

This is one problem I can say that I don't have to worry about, although I am pretty jealous off you because it means that the lord has ample blessed you in more ways then one:)
