Sarah, at 61, time is hardly on my side. The early signals are slight and subtle. I used to joke to myself that I felt my chest had been lightly upholstered. No visible changes, but it felt slightly softer. Then my nipples began to point to the side, rather than straight ahead and then began to grow in size. Then, one day, I was on a long walk, with my dogs and realised that my chest was tender and I had nipple buds. All of this was over an extended period of time; as long as you are aware of changes, you are on track and moving forward. Be patient When I got my last order of PM, I fantasised that it might take me to a C cup; I have taken stock, got realistic and hope it will get me towards the top end of B. Where I have seen a big difference, of late,is that I have growth on the upper part of my chest, so now, when I lie on my side, in bed, I have a cleavage. That has not affected cup size, but the effect on my appearance is huge. I say this, to try and get you to realise that this is a long, slow journey and, perhaps that is as it should be; I have run far ahead of my timetable for transition and the thought of coping with something that happened twice as fast, does not bear thinking about. As your boobs grow, they will dominate your life and you will have to come to a mental adjustment, that allows you to cope. That is where I now am and it is not an easy place; not that I have any regrets. I have never been happier in my life, malenesses has gone and now I face the future; at 61 that can't be bad, but it is daunting.
