As <a
href="http://www.gurl.com/2013/04/26/big-boobs-breasts-bra-clothes/" target="_blank">I&#8217;ve said before</a>, I know this from experience. My boobs aren&#8217;t huge, but even as a 36D, I know that finding a bathing suit that doesn&#8217;t feel like it&#8217;s going to reveal my girls at any minute is hard. Also,<strong> it&#8217;s expensive!</strong> I&#8217;m super jealous of my friends who can run into Target and come out 10 minutes later with a $30 bikini. I have to <strong>order mine</strong> online and spend a good amount of money on them.</p><p>And for sizes larger than a D or DD, it&#8217;s <strong>even more difficult.</strong> Most of the bathing suits for large breasts tend to look like bras or are really boring. But don&#8217;t feel like you&#8217;re doomed if you have <strong>big boobs</strong> &#8211; there are suits out there that are comfortable! I&#8217;ve rounded up some of the best bathing suits for girls with big boobs. Yeah, they&#8217;re a little <strong>pricey</strong>, but sometimes feeling comfy and happy with how you look at the beach is worth the money! Check &#8216;em out and report back to us if you try them out.</p><div

id="description_4"><h2>Cleo by Panache: Pippa UW Balconnet Bikini</h2>I'm in love with this suit. I think everything about it is awesome - the pattern, the cut, the the color, everything! In case you can't see, there's a sailboat pattern! This offers great support, while also keeping you from spilling out.<p></p> <a

id="description_6"><h2>Panache: Silhouette Shaping UW Swimsuit</h2>Not into two-piece bathing suits? This black suit from Panache should be your number one choice. It's very figure-flattering while still giving you great support. Sometimes a black suit can be a girl's best friend!<p></P> <a

id="description_8"><h2>Victoria's Secret The Gorgeous Swim Collection: Push-Up Bandeau Top</h2>Finding a bathing suit that fits a large bust is hard enough, but finding a strapless? Ugh. I hate tan lines, so I've always been searching for the perfect strapless and I have to say, I love this one. It doesn't go up very high in size, but for my size, I think it gives great support. It doesn't turn my boobs into one huge uni-boob and it also lifts them up - because sometimes, bigger breasts tend to sag, you know?<P></p> <a

id="description_12"><h2>Midnight Grace By Figleaves.Com: Heidi Underwired Halter Swimsuit</h2>My favorite part about this one-piece bathing suit is that the strap can be taken off. So, maybe you want to wear it when you're walking around for more support - but when you lay down, you can take it off so you don't get any tan lines! With the underwire inside, you can't go wrong.<P></P> <a

id="description_13"><h2>Panache: Lola Bikini Swimwear Top</h2>My sister owns this bathing suit, so I can vouch for how great it looks in person. The charm embellishments make what could be a boring suit a lot more fun. The plunge also isn't too deep, so you show off a little without feeling like you're going to fall out.<p></p> <a
href="http://www.herroom.com/panache-sw0721-lola-bikini-swim-top.shtml">Available up to size 38G from HerRoom.com</a></span><span
id="description_14"><h2>Cleo by Panache: Lucille Bandeau Swimwear Top</h2>I'm obsessed with this bathing suit. It has a lot of support, is well-lined, gives you support for side-boob and just looks really adorable.<p></p> <a

id="description_0"><h2>Headaches</h2>Believe it or not, an ill-fitting bra can cause some seriously annoying headaches. If your bra is too tight, it causes tension on your shoulders, neck and back and that in turn can cause headaches.<p></p> <a
href="http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-67103074/stock-photo-bored-unhappy-young-black-business-woman-at-desk-in-office.html?src=csl_recent_image-4">Source: ShutterStock</a></span><span
id="description_1"><h2>You Can Stretch Your Boobs Out</h2>According to <a
href="http://jezebel.com/5029123/wearing-the-wrong-bra-can-damage-breasts-+-so-what">British research</a>, a bra that is the wrong size can cause the ligaments to stretch, which can ultimately result in saggy boobs. Make sure your girls are getting enough support!<p></p> <a
href="http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-97895282/stock-photo-young-beautiful-blonde-woman-holding-her-big-sexy-wet-breast.html?src=csl_recent_image-5">Source: ShutterStock</a></span><span
id="description_2"><h2>Back Pain</h2>If your bra is too big, that means that you're not getting enough support. And if you're not getting enough support, your boobs (especially if they're large) are going to start giving you back pain.<P></p> <a
href="http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-106904186/stock-photo-back-pain-athlete-sportswoman-backache-and-injury-female-young-runner-with-sports-muscle-injury.html?src=csl_recent_image-3">Source: ShutterStock</a></span><span
id="description_3"><h2>Too-Tight Straps</h2>If your bra is too big, you'll probably start tightening the straps so that your boobs get lifted up more. All this does is create ugly red marks in your shoulder that don't need to be there.<p></p> <a
href="http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-108952346/stock-photo-young-woman-with-pain-in-her-shoulder.html?src=csl_recent_image-10">Source: ShutterStock</a></span><span
id="description_4"><h2>Your Boobs Bulge Out</h2>You know when your bra is too tight and your boobs start to bulge out and it looks really terrible and annoying? Yeah. Hate that.<p></p> <a
href="http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-83999278/stock-photo-chest-of-girl-in-black-bra.html?src=csl_recent_image-12">Source: ShutterStock</a></span><span
id="description_5"><h2>Back Bulge</h2>If your bra is too tight, the back strap is going to be tight, which is going to cause some nice annoying bulge back there. If it's too loose, you're probably going to try to fix that by tightening in the straps. That means your bra strap rides up your back until it's seriously uncomfortable. Either way, you lose.<P></p> <a

id="description_6"><h2>Indigestion</h2>I know this sounds weird, but it's true - the wrong size bra can cause stomach pain and indigestion. If the bra is too tight, it will dig into your ribs and upper stomach area, causing problems inside your body that you don't even realize.<p></p> <a
href="http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-113102911/stock-photo-woman-with-menstrual-problem-very-sick.html?src=csl_recent_image-1">Source: ShutterStock</a></span><span
id="description_7"><h2>Bra Gaps</h2>Gaps in between your bra and your boobs mean that your cup size is too big. This is more annoying than anything else and it just looks weird.<p></p> <a
href="http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-92708332/stock-photo-pretty-young-woman-stuffing-bra-with-tissue-to-enhance-breast-size.html?src=csl_recent_image-6">Source: ShutterStock</a></span><span
id="description_8"><h2>Shoulder Pain</h2>Remember how I said your straps being too tight result in red marks? Well, they also result in shoulder pain. It's so uncomfortable and so not worth it.<p></p> <a
href="http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-130488704/stock-photo-beautiful-brunette-is-having-a-pain-in-her-shoulder.html?src=csl_recent_image-2">Source: ShutterStock</a></span><span
id="description_9"><h2>Rib/Stomach Bulge</h2>Again, a bra that's too tight only results in bulges. If the band is too tight, it's going to dig into your ribs and make your skin bulge out. Not comfortable and not fun.<P></p> <a

id="hmh_q"><p><em>Hi Heather,</em></p><p><em>I&#8217;m kind of freaking out because I randomly felt a lump in my breast the other day! I even had my boyfriend check to make sure he felt it too and he does. I&#8217;ve been to the gyno and had a breast exam before but it&#8217;s been a while. I&#8217;m really scared &#8211; does this mean I have breast cancer? I feel weird going to the gyno for something like this, but I don&#8217;t know what else to do. Is it normal to have lumps in your breasts? Please help! </em></p></div><p>First things first: take a deep breath and <strong>relax</strong>! Finding a <strong>lump in your breast</strong> does not automatically mean that you have cancer. I completely understand how scary it is &#8211; once I found a lump in my armpit and I was convinced I was dying (turns out it was just swollen glands) &#8211; but freaking out <strong>isn&#8217;t going to help</strong> the situation at all. Take it from me, I&#8217;ve been there.</p><p>Let&#8217;s go over the good news first: <strong>80 percent</strong> of lumps found in breasts are <strong>benign</strong>, which is a fancy word for &#8220;cancer-free.&#8221; Also, <strong>breast cancer</strong> generally affects older women over the age of 30 (although it can of course <a
href="http://www.gurl.com/2013/02/27/metastatic-breast-cancer/" target="_blank">affect younger women</a> also). So, chances are, your lump isn&#8217;t something to panic over.</p><p>Now it&#8217;s time for the <strong>not-so-good news</strong>: you should definitely head over to the gyno to get it checked out anyway. And, really, that news isn&#8217;t even that bad. While chances are good that your lump is nothing to worry about, it&#8217;s still really important to stay on top of your health. Trust me, your doctor isn&#8217;t going to think you&#8217;re <strong>crazy or dramatic</strong> for coming in to get a <a
href="http://www.gurl.com/2012/12/18/touch-your-boobs-breast-cancer/" target="_blank">breast exam</a>. You&#8217;re concerned about your health &#8211; there&#8217;s nothing crazy about that!</p><p>So what could this lump be? Well for starters, some breasts are just <strong>lumpier</strong> than others, so this could just be a lump you&#8217;ve maybe never noticed before. It could be a <strong>cyst</strong> &#8211; <a
href="http://www.gurl.com/2013/04/25/ovarian-cysts-types-causes/" target="_blank">cysts</a> sound scary, but they&#8217;re actually<strong> pretty common</strong> and can sometimes come and go throughout your menstrual cycle. It could be <strong>fibroadenoma</strong>, which is an excess formation of lobules (the glands that produce milk). The lump could also be the result of an <strong>injury</strong> you had that maybe you forgot about. The point is, a lump in your breast could mean a lot of things, not just cancer &#8211; although that is typically the first thing to pop into our minds.</p><p>Head over to the doctor and make sure you&#8217;re keeping up on your <strong>breast exams</strong>. If you can&#8217;t make it to the gyno all the time, do a monthly breast exam on yourself (use this <a
href="http://www.webmd.com/breast-cancer/guide/breast-self-exam" target="_blank">handy guide</a> to figure out what to do). I&#8217;m not going to lie, it&#8217;s not the most <strong>comfortable</strong> thing in the world, but you should still do it. Even though teens don&#8217;t have a huge risk of breast cancer, it&#8217;s still <strong>possible</strong>, which means it&#8217;s still important to watch out for yourself.</p><p><strong>take care,</strong><br

href="http://www.gurl.com/2013/03/05/find-bra-size-measure-bra-size/" title="Find A Bra Size That Fits!">I&#8217;ve <strong>never</strong> been fitted for a bra before</a>, but <a
href="http://myintimacy.com/">we went to an event at <strong>Intimacy</strong></a> last night to <strong>peruse</strong> some of their new selections. They were offering<strong> free fittings</strong>, and I figured why not?</p><p>By taking just<strong> one look</strong> at me, my fitting <strong>stylist</strong> said I was wearing the <strong>wrong size</strong> and chuckled a little at how <strong>tight</strong> I had to make my <strong>band</strong> and <strong>straps</strong> just to stay on. Instead of using a <strong>measuring</strong> tape, the stylists at Intimacy use a <strong>holistic</strong> method where they determine <strong>everything</strong> by touch. You&#8217;d think it would be <strong>awkward</strong> with someone <strong>poking</strong> your boobs, but it <strong>wasn&#8217;t</strong> at all.</p><p>My stylist looked at my <strong>rib cage</strong> and <strong>shoulders</strong> and felt <strong>where</strong> my boobs were sitting in the bra I was wearing. After literally <strong>1 minute</strong>, she said<em> &#8220;Yup, you&#8217;re definitely in the <strong>wrong</strong> bra! I&#8217;ll be back.&#8221;</em></p><p>She came back with a ton of <strong>gorgeous</strong> bras. Like the prettiest bras I&#8217;ve <strong>ever</strong> seen! She carefully put me into each one and the <strong>difference</strong> was absolutely <strong>shocking</strong>. I mean, I have never felt<strong> so comfortable</strong> in a bra before. And my boobs have never looked so great! I immediately felt a <strong>relief</strong> in my back and shoulders, and I was standing up super straight.</p><p>I was <strong>amazed</strong>. When I asked what the <strong>size</strong> was, my jaw dropped. I went <strong>down</strong> two band sizes and <strong>up</strong> two cup sizes. I wanted to buy <strong>every single bra</strong> she put on me!</p><p>I <strong>didn&#8217;t</strong> make a purchase last night because the bras were super <strong>fancy</strong> and way above my <strong>budget</strong>, but now I know what <strong>size</strong> I should be looking for. When I put my bra on <strong>this</strong> <strong>morning</strong> I actually groaned because it was so <strong>uncomfortable</strong> compared the bras I tried on last night.</p><p>I <strong>seriously</strong> want all of you to go get professionally fitted like <strong>immediately</strong>. Don&#8217;t do it for me. Do it for your <strong>boobs</strong>.<br

href="http://www.gurl.com/2013/01/29/i-have-small-breasts/" target="_blank">smaller boobs</a>? I think it&#8217;s safe to say that we&#8217;re all pretty curious to know exactly what it is about boobs (which are really just pockets of <em>fat</em>) that drive some men crazy.</p><p>But can there ever really be a <strong>clear answer</strong> to the question of why some men like bigger boobs? After all, isn&#8217;t everyone attracted to different things? Is it really true that certain groups of people are attracted to certain things? Basically, is there really <strong>a science behind physical attraction?</strong> According to a few different studies, yes &#8211; <a
href="http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/head-games/201305/what-is-it-about-men-and-breast-size" target="_blank">Psychology Today</a> recently posted an article about why certain men like <strong>bigger breasts</strong> and the results are kind of surprising.</p><p>So, why are some dudes really into D-cups while some dudes dig A-cups? According to one study, men who<strong> don&#8217;t have a lot of money</strong> are more into big boobs while men who are more financially secure like<strong> smaller boobs</strong>.  Doesn&#8217;t it sound crazy that the amount of money you have could influence what size breasts you like? Um, yeah, it does.</p><p>But apparently, one view on female breast size is that it acts as &#8220;a signal of fat reserves, which in turn advertises access to resources.&#8221; Psychologists tested out this idea by asking men from different socioeconomic backgrounds what size breasts they found more attractive. Sure enough,<strong> the idea seemed to be true</strong> &#8211; the men with less material goods liked <a
href="http://www.gurl.com/2013/03/07/sexist-men-big-boobs/" target="_blank">bigger breasts</a> more. Why? It sounds like they associate large breasts with more money and resources. Since poorer men are most likely striving for more money, it would make sense that they would like something that <strong>symbolizes more money</strong>. How do breasts symbolize &#8220;more resources?&#8221; Honestly, I couldn&#8217;t tell you.</p><p>The next study found that guys who were <strong>hungry</strong> were more like to find big boobs more desirable, while guys who were not hungry were more into small boobs. Completely random, right? Apparently this study was based on the evolutionary perspective that breasts are a sign of a woman&#8217;s ability to <strong>have and take care of kids</strong>. To tell you the truth, I&#8217;m still pretty confused as to how that relates to being hungry or not hungry, but <strong>okay</strong>. I&#8217;ll go with it.</p><p>Lastly, researchers tested out this theory even more and discovered that guys who <strong>really want to be fathers</strong> at some point like bigger breasts, while guys who don&#8217;t really want to be dads liked smaller breasts. So, it looks like that <strong>evolutionary theory</strong> about boobs rings true &#8211; it seems that some men do associate larger breasts with a woman&#8217;s ability to be a good mom.</p><p>So,<strong> to recap:</strong> guys who like <strong>big breasts</strong> generally do not have a lot of money, want to be fathers one day and are hungry. Men who like small breasts have a good amount of money, don&#8217;t want to be a dad and are not hungry.</p><p>Does this sound completely <strong>ridiculous</strong> to anyone else except me? While I sort of get the science behind each of these ideas, at the same time, I&#8217;m having a hard time believing these results. And that&#8217;s not only because these studies were pretty small (the dad one only looked at 67 men), but also because it just sounds <strong>silly</strong> to me. How does hungry and money affect what kind of boobs you like? More importantly, <em>why</em> do we need to know why some dudes like big boobs? Maybe some guys just like the way they feel! Maybe it <strong>depends on the girl.</strong> I don&#8217;t know, I just think there are a lot of other factors to consider.</p><p>That being said, these findings were pretty <strong>interesting</strong>. And so, I want to know what you think about them: do they sound legit or ridic?</p><p><strong>What do you think about these studies? Would you take them seriously? Why do you think some guys like big boobs? Do you care about the reason? <a

But I have to be honest with you guys &#8211; sometimes, having larger breasts is <strong>so. Freakin&#8217;. Annoying.</strong></p><p>A lot of girls think that with bigger boobs comes<strong> endless possibilities.</strong> Sure, those curves fill out certain styles of clothing differently than A-cups do, but trust me &#8211; big boobs do <em>not</em> make everything better. There are certain items of clothing I wish I could wear, but I can&#8217;t because they just don&#8217;t fit my breasts right. I have never given up hope on some things (I refuse to stop looking until I find the perfect strapless <strong>bikini</strong>), but honestly, most of the time these things are just a <strong>major fail</strong> on my body.</p><p>Here are <strong>10 things that kind of suck because of my boobs.</strong> I&#8217;m sure many of you can relate. Let&#8217;s complain together:</p><div

id="description_0"><h2>Button-Down Shirts</h2>I think I have been on a never-ending quest to find the perfect button-down shirt since I was born. I'M NOT BEING DRAMATIC. I love, love, love the look of any button-down, but unfortunately, I have yet to find one that doesn't pop open in the middle of a group of strangers to reveal my bra. That happens if I can even manage to button it up to begin with - usually I have to wear a tank underneath, which is like, <em>ugh.</em><p></p> <a

id="description_1"><h2>Loose Crop Tops</h2>I see these kind of loose crop tops everywhere in New York during the summer. They're so fun and carefree and light and I want one. So I forgot the lessons I've learned in the past about baggy shirts and big boobs and bought one. The tank either slides down to show off my whole bra or slides over to show off major side boob or rides up so much you can see my stomach. No thanks. Dreams over.<p></p> <a

id="description_2"><h2>Elastic Waist Shirts or Dresses</h2>Elastic waists are the bane of my existence. I think they were made solely to make me feel bad about myself (JK, JK, I'm not so self-absorbed). My boobs fill out too much of the top and the whole thing just ends up looking weird and lopsided or kind of giving me a pregnant vibe and it's like... pregnancy is cool and all, but I'm not pregnant. So...<p></p> <a

id="description_3"><h2>Bathing Suits</h2>You know how you can run over to Target and buy a super cute bikini for, like, $30? That must be nice. I don't know what that feels like. I only order my bathing suits from Victoria's Secret so that I can get them in bra sizes - and even then, the tops usually don't always fit right. There's a lot of squishing and pushing and under-boob and side-boob action happening no matter what. I mean, can't a girl just be comfortable on the beach?!<p></p> <a

id="description_4"><h2>Sports Bras</h2>Any fellow large-chested woman will agree with me - sports bras are the worst. I've spent one too many workouts squishing my boobs into two different sports bras just so they don't painfully move around while I exercise... because that HURTS. It's so hard to find a good sports bra. Some of them squish you way too much (that's not support, it's just squishing) and some of them claim they're supportive, but... they're not. It's a lie. Personally, I enjoy <a

id="description_5"><h2>Strapless Anything</h2>I once heard someone say she envied girls with large breasts because we could pull of strapless things better. LOL NO. Strapless things, whether it's a bra or a dress or a top, make me miserable and I wish I were kidding. How do I explain a night full of constantly pulling up your shirt/dress/bra and wondering whether or not your boobs have turned into one giant long boob? Annoying. Terrible. Uncomfortable.<p></p> <a
href="http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-6318049/stock-photo-pink-dress.html?src=csl_recent_image-5">Source: ShutterStock</a></span><span
id="description_6"><h2>Long Necklaces</h2>Oh, check out how cute this look is. Wish I could wear it. Except I can't, because whenever I try to pull off a long necklace, it either gets stuck between my boobs and looks ridiculous or it just hangs two inches off my waist and bops around all day. No, thanks.<p></p> <a

id="description_7"><h2>Backless Anything, Or A Low Back</h2>I adore backless dresses. They're so sexy and sophisticated. Too bad I'll never be able to pull one off because I have to wear some sort of supportive bra and supportive means a thick band. Major, major sad face. Low backs are almost as frustrating - no one likes to see your bra hanging out of your shirt.<p></p> <a

id="description_8"><h2>Spaghetti Strap Shirts</h2>These little tanks are so cute and simple and I love spaghetti straps for the summer. Unfortunately, it's really hard for me to pull them off. Remember those supportive bras I was just talking about? Yeah, they usually involve thick straps that are completely visible under a spaghetti strap. And that kind of ruins things.<p></p> <a

id="description_9"><h2>Cute And Cheap Bras</h2>I used to work at Victoria's Secret and I spent a lot of my time there admiring the adorable and cheap PINK bras that came in all sorts of fun colors. Just admiring, though, because wearing a cheap bra like this is like wearing no bra at all. There's just no support there. Do you know how much my bank account wishes I could spend $30 on a bra rather than $60? Do you?!<p></p> <a

Honestly, ladies, there is absolutely <strong>nothing wrong</strong> with <a
href="http://www.gurl.com/2013/01/29/i-have-small-breasts/" target="_blank">small breasts</a>, but if you really feel like you want to make your boobs like bigger, then hey&#8230; I&#8217;m here for &#8216;ya.</p><p>Which is exactly why I&#8217;m going to tell you about this latest boob product. It&#8217;s a way to <strong>enhance your cleavage</strong> that doesn&#8217;t involve permanent plastic surgery or spending $55 on a Victoria&#8217;s Secret push-up bra. What is this miracle product? It&#8217;s called <strong>Boob Glue™</strong> and while it doesn&#8217;t actually make your breasts larger, it does make them <em>look</em> larger. So, you know, kind of the same thing. <strong>Sort of. </strong></p><p>Boob Glue™ supposedly gives your boobs a lot of lift, hold and support and it can either make your breasts look <strong>bigger</strong> or <strong>smaller</strong>. It was created by a California beautician named Dawn Jackson, who says <a
href="http://www.boobglue.co/" target="_blank">on her website</a>, &#8220;Like so many women, I had a love/hate relationship with my breasts. After having tried much more than a fair share of push-up bras, solution bras, adhesive forms, breast tape, duct tape, electrical tape, bra inserts&#8230; along with pushing, shoving, lifting, stuffing and smashing. I was exhausted and hopeless with products and their claims.&#8221; She also calls the product a <strong>&#8220;boob job in a bottle.&#8221;</strong> Sounds pretty promising.</p><p>This Boob Glue™ kind of works exactly how you would think it would: you&#8217;re basically <strong>gluing your boobs into place</strong>. You rub the glue all around your breast and line it into your bra. Once it&#8217;s on there, you position your breast the way you want it to look and then hold it for a minute. The glue sticks and holds and, <strong>voila</strong>, your breasts look exactly how you want them to look!</p><p>Boob Glue™ is supposed to <strong>eliminate</strong> things like breast sagging, jiggling, bulging, underarm bulge and <strong>stretch marks</strong>. You know how you&#8217;re always grabbing hold of your bra straps to adjust your boobs into place? Boob Glue™ eliminates that too, guys. It also gets rid of something the <a
href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2292127/Boob-GLUE-fuller-cleavage-Roll-adhesive-promises-eliminate-sagging-bulging-dreaded-quadra-boob.html" target="_blank">Daily Mail</a> calls the &#8220;dreaded quadra boob,&#8221; but honestly, I don&#8217;t know what that is. <strong>Anyone?</strong> The website promises that you&#8217;ll &#8220;get the pair you never knew you had, even you won’t be able to take your eyes off them.&#8221;</p><div

class="wp-caption-text">Before &amp; After shots of the creator using Boob Glue. | Souce: Facebook</p></div><p>Okay, sounds intriguing, but also&#8230; <strong>uncomfortable</strong>? Sticky? Maybe a tiny bit painful? Or am I the only one a little wary about putting glue on my boobs to hold them into place?</p><p>I mean, I&#8217;m not going to knock this completely. It <em>does</em> sound interesting and I&#8217;m pretty tempted to <strong>try it out</strong>. But at the same time, I can&#8217;t help but wonder how long this stuff lasts. What if you sweat a lot? Does the glue come off? Imagine if one breast starts sagging but the other one is, like, perfectly pushed up? Um, <strong>worst nightmare</strong>?</p><p>But in the end, I think this could be worth a try. While I don&#8217;t think there&#8217;s anything wrong with your breasts just the way you are, if this makes you feel more <strong>confident</strong>, then hey &#8211; I&#8217;m on board. Boob Glue™ will be released this month, but you can <strong>pre-order</strong> it now if you&#8217;re feeling impatient.</p><p><strong>Do you want to try Boob Glue™? Do you wear things to make your breasts look larger? Do you think this sounds like a good or bad idea? <a

One day you&#8217;re sitting around, not even really thinking about your boobs, and the next day you&#8217;re looking in the mirror and you see it &#8211; <strong>OMG</strong>! They&#8217;re not the same! And if this has never happened to you, sorry&#8230; you&#8217;re probably going to check &#8216;em out right now.</p><p>But really, what&#8217;s the big deal about <strong>uneven breasts</strong>? Oh, right&#8230; it&#8217;s not a big deal at all! Uneven breasts are a part of life, as weird as that may sound, and there&#8217;s no reason to feel ashamed of them. I once knew a girl who had <em>really</em> uneven boobs and it was something she told everyone. <strong>No one even cared.</strong> We were all just like, &#8220;Oh yeah, that&#8217;s Stacy. Her boobs are different sizes. <strong>Whatever</strong>.&#8221;</p><p>But since we know it can be <strong>difficult</strong> to deal with these kinds of things sometimes, we put together a few reasons why having uneven boobs is <strong>nothing to stress over.</strong> Check them out:</p><div

href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/02/01/jennifer-lawrences-breasts_n_2598105.html?utm_hp_ref=entertainment&ir=Entertainment">interview with Jimmy Kimmel</a>, JLaw discussed the doctor's visit where she realized she had uneven breasts, saying, "I was like standing there with these doctors and they're like looking at my lungs and I just couldn't - it felt like an elephant in the room - and I was like, 'Are my breasts uneven?' And they were just kind of, like, stifled and uncomfortable, obviously. So I kept thinking, 'Well, I'm gonna dig myself out of this hole by bringing it up again.' So he was like, 'All right, our radiologist will get back to you about your lungs.' And I was like, 'And my breasts.'"<p></p> Source: WENN.com</span><span
id="description_1"><h2>Actually, Most Women Do</h2>Jennifer Lawrence and yourself aren't the only women out there rocking uneven boobies - the majority of women are also. <a
href="http://www.wdxcyber.com/nbreast3.htm">It's true!</a> Yeah, some people might experience more of a difference than others, but the point is, you are <em>so</em> not alone. See? No big deal.<p></p> <a

id="description_3"><h2>You Still Have Boobs, Right?</h2>Let's face it: no matter what shape, size or color they are, boobs are awesome and they're always going to be awesome. Be proud of your girls despite the fact that they might be a little different from each other. You're lucky you have them at all!<p></p> <a

id="description_4"><h2>Other People Probably Don't Even Notice Them</h2>Feeling self-conscious about your different sized boobies? You shouldn't. Unless your breasts are drastically different, I'm guessing almost no one notices that except for you. We're all our own worst critics. And if they <em>are</em> drastically different? Whatever. Who cares if people notice? No one is perfect.<p></p> <a

id="description_5"><h2>They Can Lighten The Mood</h2>Okay, so you'e getting naked with a dude, but... things are just a little bit awkward. No worries! Just blurt out, "Look at my boobs, they're not the same size!" It will totally lighten the mood. Seriously. Guys are interested in that kind of stuff.<p></p> <a

id="description_6"><h2>It's Interesting</h2>Like I said before, symmetry is overrated. Your so-called imperfect breasts are just another thing about you that's interesting. Some people (like Harry Styles) have a third nipple, some have extra toes... you have different sized boobs. Embrace your body, girl!<p></p> <a
