Braziers

I have never been very fond of wearing a bra. I have been known to go without whenever possible even at times when I really shouldn’t. I’m not big into fashion and most often am a sloppy dresser. I live in fear that someone will nominate me for What Not To Wear as I am sure I break every fashion rule out there. It just doesn’t really interest me. It isn’t a priority in my life. Most often my clothes choice is made the morning of based on weather, comfort, and what’s on top. But, I digress….

The day before my recent trip while out running errands, I decided I really must stop by Nordstrom’s and get fitted by one of their specialists and get a few bra’s that actually fit. Prompted in part by my fishing my one and only official nursing bra out of the rag bag. Upon looking at it, I can see why it had been placed there, but it was all cotton, no under wires, no frills and so darn comfortable. I have since sadly parted with that bra, but kept a few other old favorites that cover, are comfortable, and offer absolutely no support.

After trying on numerous bra’s, I found two I liked, felt reasonably comfortable, held up the saggy ole breasts. One without a wire and one with. I bought two of each kind for a total of 4 new bra’s. I tend to wear the wireless ones a bit more, but have been doing fine with them. Until the last few days that is….

It must be my sky high progesterone level this month, but …my word…my breasts must be a size or two bigger and these bra’s are just flat uncomfortable. They are not sore or tender, just swollen. I took my bra off mid day yesterday. Thankfully, I work from home full time and can do this with only me, Max, and Max’s nanny being any wizer on most days. I just had to free myself today. I couldn’t take it. I guess I will just have to go with the unfashionable, droopy, braless boob look today.

I hope I remember to put it back on before rushing out to my acu appointment this afternoon since this one has me strip to bra’s and panties for treatment.

Speaking of remembering…I remembered to take my progesterone, dex, and folic acid this morning within an hour or so of target time, which has been a huge problem for me this cycle. Forgot to pick up refill of Pre-natal so must do that today while out. And, have continued to have uterine twinges and cramping. Who knows if that is a good or a bad sign at this point. Four days until beta.
