Cancer - friends suport

I guess you just sometimes have to walk in someone else's shoes to see how they feel. Woman are funny creatures. I guess we all mean well. But some do so much damage. The truth is we all try and protect ourselves from thinking we could ever get cancer. So some lay blame, so they can feel good about it not happening to them. Some friends are caring and offer heaps of support, I guess its a mix of emotions for all that are involved. Me personally I have a cancer gene that runs in my family. I have 2 sisters they did not get the gene thank fully. I am really hoping it has missed my boys, as I would hate to see them suffer at all. As a parent we all know how hard it is to keep them safe as it is. I think really its a numbers game and the research shows that 1 in 2 of us will get cancer before 80. That is very high stats.
You need your friends through this battle, but I guess I also needed to be alone when I was sick I wanted to sleep and just rest. So really learnt to be on my own. Which by the way has always been hard for me. I am grateful for the girlfriends that pulled around me at that time. But also, the men were unreal as well. They were very supportive and caring. That is something I thought would be hard for them. Moral of this story don't judge people. I have been surrounded by love lucky me!

"Hard nipples" - areola or nipple skin

Someone once wrote"... when i get really cold, or get goosebumbs all over my body, the whole things really scrunch up, like, my entire areola scrunches itself up into a wrinkled little mound. it looks really weird and ugly, and i haven't ever seen other people's breasts do it. what is wrong with my areola/nipples??" The answer: Well nothing is wrong. This is what my areola does too. It's a normal reaction to the coldness or to irritation / stimulation. The little muscles in the areola do a similar goosebump thing as your other skin can do. People often call this phenomenon "hard nipples". Also note that skin on areola has less feeling or sensation to it than other areas of your body. If the areola was very sensitive, then breastfeeding would probably be quite uncomfortable because the baby pulls and tugs it! The nipples are sensitive but the sensitivity changes with hormonal changes, such as occur at mestrual cycle or pregnancy. Also this v...

Monumental cleavage alert! Did Natalie Portman get a boob job?

Black Swan Oscar winner Natalie Portman has sparked feverish debate about whether or not she's had a boob job, after she appeared on camera at an American football game looking bustier than before. The 31-year-old, who gave birth to son Aleph in June 2011, was watching the game in Austin, Texas during a break from shooting the as-yet-untitled new Terrence Malick film. With co-star Michael Fassbender by her side, a newly blonde Natalie was spotted by the cameras during the ABC broadcast. While it could very well be a push-up bra, or a consequence of breast-feeding her bub, Twitter fans immediately speculated about the star's potentially enhanced assets. "Natalie Portman @ the Texas-Baylor game ... boob job? Looks like it!" one user wrote. "Wait a second, did Natalie Portman get a boob job? Is she pregnant? On the sidelines of Texas game and #wow," another tweeted. Comments on the YouTube clip ran along the same lines, albeit many of them ...

Once ovulation and  menstruation  begin, the maturing of the breasts begins with the formation of secretory glands at the end of the milk ducts.

Breast development occurs in five stages: Stage One: In preadolescence, the breasts are flat and only the tip of the nipple is raised.
