boob talk, weight(loss), minor pain Afficher plus

mentioned to my partner that I might talk to the physical therapist about my back pain when we get into a routine with my foot. partner said he didn't think it would help. I asked why, and he said something like "what are they going to do about your giant tits?"

and like, I poo-pooed it at first because like, I've had my tits for years and this particular pain is really recent

then I guess I realized that since I lost weight, the only way my boobs rest on my stomach when sitting is if I have a really crooked posture. I'm used to them resting on my stomach, and while it's not... support, the alternative is supporting all of their weight with my shoulders - so basically, now I'm in a "slouch (badly), or keep muscle tension in back" dilemma, whereas before I stuck with "slouch (slightly), and let boobs rest on stomach"

so... I guess here's hoping bralettes help a lot?

@Maenad That sort of thing could probably be addressed through (more and different) physical therapy.

@Qwyrdo yeah

I definitely haven't ruled out talking to my physical therapist about any of this

but like, physical therapy has changed my life in the past, so I'm a HUGE believer. My partner has never had that experience, so I think he's inclined to dismiss it as "well if you're in shape you shouldn't need it".

@Maenad IME, for insurance reasons, you usually have to start by talking to your primary doctor about a new symptom.

But if you're already in PT and have a good relationship with them, it couldn't hurt (no pun intended).
