Title: Yay I got a ball forming!!!
Post by: Samantha_Marie on August 09, 2010, 06:54:12 PM
Ok so I knew this was going to happen but I was sitting here watching tv and looked down(no shirt on, home alone and it's like 85 degrees in my computer room) and noticed I'm growing!! There is a tiny ball already forming and about an inch on each side of my nipple is starting to pooch out!!!!! I am so happy right now I can dance!!! OMG YAY!

I'm totally freaking out I can't express it! I know I'm still a month or more away from needing a bra and I can't wait!!!

Now please please please PLEASE let the hair go away :(

LOL!.... 

  I remember that moment!  I got warm fuzzies when I read your post  :D

I will never, ever take my breasts for granted.... my fave text to send to random contacts?

"I love my boobies!" 

Tee Hee!!

The body hair takes a long time but it happens

I too was ecstatic when I first saw visible signs of breast development. The tenderness and sensitivity were a big surprise though! Even just brushing them against something was awful. And did anyone else find that their nipples were fully erect 24/7? Once the nodule under the nipple starts getting covered in breast tissue, the tenderness fades, but I have noticed I can feel more with them than ever before. Touching my chest before HRT caused no response. Now the skin is so much more sensitive that .... wow.

I'm still early on in my treatment, and my development is going better than I had feared!

Wait till the first time you try to put on an old pair of jeans and can't get them over your thighs any more ;)

Yeah... The sensitivity started with my nipples and just spread, over time, all over... I think alot of it has to do with the way E thins your skin. I found that, just being touched... anywhere, could start a sexual response. Now, I crave being touched.

  And Gabby....  If you think that feeling is awesome, wait till they start to move when U walk!!!!!!!!! OMG, that was the best!  :laugh:

hahaha bouncing IS a good feeling! Totally new experience, and I take advantage of it!

To answer the hair question, the hair on my chest (though there was never a lot to begin with) and around my nipples has diminised greatly, much of it doesn't even grow any more. I do have a lot more of the "peach-fuzz" now which I kind of like. =]

I'll be ok with peach fuzz, that's not abnormal at all. It's the big, dark hair I have that sprouts around that is disgusting  :embarrassed:

I can't WAIT for them to actually MOVE!!! OMG I'm so excited just thinking about it makes me grin so big I can't even remember when I last smiled so big!

But for now I'll take pleasure in this little joy I discovered today! I do keep poking and prodding around my chest, I can feel that they are... tender? I don't know if that's the right word tho.. I really am at a loss to explain the sensation but thankfully I don't have to for those of you who have already passed the first month!

Anyways, I best be headin to bed, ever since I started hrt my body decided it LOVES sleep, which is so not me. I'm use to NEVER being able to fall asleep and now I just wanna cuddle up in a bed and dream of what's heading my way!!

Congratulations in a few weeks expect to see your "buds" or bee-stings appear. I remember just how happy I was too reading your post.
Then expect a month of you not begin used to them and bashing them unintentionally on bag straps, tables and doors. :) Welcome to puberty.

I remember that feeling well.  It's a very fulfilling and exciting time.

But just you wait, because it's fun to look back after a few months when you can't remember what it was like to have a flat chest. :)  I'm glad I'm keeping pictures because they remind me how far I've come, even in these 4 and a half months.  Next step: the itching beginneth!

That's awesome! So cool! HUGS!! Nice one girl!

I've been on hormones about 6 months and only really needing a bra now - more for running, or walking down stairs  ;) Also a good bra looks good under clothing.

But I can still get away with not wearing one.  Mine ached for 3 months, had weird hot cold sensations. They still are a bit sensitive, but nothing like they were. I was showing everyone "look, I got boobies!!" "Look, it is cold in here!!!".

A lesbian friend of mine just shook her head "you trans girls are always showing off your breasts" lol

Likewise, it sure gives me a smile.. It also makes me impatient for the day it happens to me...

I have to remind myself sometimes that I have them and can't go shirtless any more! I also can't wear loose tank-tops any more or I'll be flashing everyone haha. Then there's getting used to wrapping myself after a shower to cover up top as well as down below, lol.

Some of my friends probably think I'm a little odd for being so excited about having breasts, and for sending them pics randomly lol, but I don't care! It's exciting and makes me happy because it's how I should have looked to begin with =]
