Rain
Comic 1369 - Sensitive
Author Notes:
So, breast growth hurts. They get very sensitive. I know for my part, the early days of HRT was a whole lot of accidentally feeling like I punched myself in the chest when all I really did was raise my forearm a little fast. Or lean forward too far and lightly, but unexpectedly, touch them to my desk. Or open a door (or turn a page, as Rain describes), only to very barely bump them. The result: agony. XD
The good news is that that painful sensitivity doesn't last forever. But the early months - at least in my experience and many of the stories I've heard - are a series of clumsy moments while we get used to these changes. ^^;
As an addendum to Monday's page, today's is mostly played for laughs, but there's an important message in there too. It's okay if trans women never get particularly big breasts. It doesn't make them any less of women. Some cis women - like Maria, for example - also might have small breasts. Or even no breasts. And that's okay too. There's a lot more to being a woman than just boobs.
I think a lot of trans women focus on it because it's usually one of more noticeable effects of HRT, and I don't think there's nothing wrong with that. But as I said last time, be kind to yourself. It's okay. You already are what you say you are. ^_^

The early days are the worst, they are so goddamn sensitive to the lightest breeze...
But um
😳
Sometimes it was a good thing they were
☺️
But I think I've gotten used to it at this point so it's not as bad
Kudos to Rain for succeeding where I have always failed! As a fairly flat-chested girl, I've yet to find a one-piece bathing suit (don't like two-piece myself) that doesn't just fill up with water in the front, providing a constant threat of slipping of or being able to see right down it... I've had to wear T-shirts over every bathing suit I've had since I grew out of kid/juvenile sizes...
[That said, I also don't want to spend a lot of money on a bathing suit since I don't swim often. So, that could also be a factor in my woes. XD]

I caught up to date with it today
Enough said （＾ν＾）
Okay self-pitying rant over I guess.
Almost a year into HRT and not much to show for it, so hard not to get jealous seeing other trans girls' amazing progress after one year. Just gotta tell myself that it may take a long time.
