I finally put on a bra yesterday because I was starting to feel uncomfortable without one (I don't normally wear one unless I'm working out b/c I'm barely an A cup and don't really need one). Anyhow, I put on one of my bras, and wow was it tight! Hubby had told me a couple of days before that he thought my breasts were more firm <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> So I make the trek to Fred Meyer last night and buy 3 A cup bras. OOPS! Should have bought the almost B/B size, because these are just as tight as my old ones. So I guess the bad news is that I just spent about $60 on bras and now I need more! Not such bad news, eh? I've been on the protocol for 13 days now. Also I've had a couple of really great phone conversations with the gal we're adopting from and last weekend she asked if I would like to be the one to cut the cord! I'm leaving next Tuesday to go to Iowa to wait for him to be born. Mom to 3 yo bio son, ason born September 1!

I have one can of formula for supplementing (WISH I could afford banked milk, but I have a friend who is due in November so I may be able to get some of hers after she delivers, IF I still need to supplement, I'm thinking ONLY positive thoughts there!) The only thing that I need to add is a cut up jog bra for pumping and I think I will do that this morning. Thanks, all, for your support! Mom to 3 yo bio son, ason born September 1!
