That’s a real play on words. You’ll soon understand why.
Bet you can’t guess what’s in the jar? Go on, try……
Yep.
You may have heard of/seen the new high-tech stick-on external breast prosthesis they’ve developed (amazing actually – even for water sports), well this has now been extended to a range of nipples.
No kidding. If it wasn’t serious, it would be kinda funny. Women with nipples buy little round covers/tape and of course the old t-shirt bras to hide the nipples. Those without, consider anything and everything to make their ‘boobs’ appear normal.
I guess for those who are considering the surgical option of reconstructing the nipples and areola, or the less invasive option of having a tattoo done, these little ‘band-aid bits’ are good for a trial run. The lady who sold me mine also insisted they’d make me feel more normal and the bumps would fill out the bits of fabric which gape in almost all of my bra’s (and togs).
I’ve had them for a while now and can’t bring myself to open the jar, stick ’em on and leave the house. Just the thought of it seems odd. Reality is I’m getting used to being ‘nipple-less’ and no matter how much I miss the sensation, I don’t ‘feel the need’ to play tricks with my mind by using these.
Dr D has asked a few times whether I’m considering reconstruction of the nipples. No is the answer I’ve given each time. I may change my mind in the future, who knows. I fully support the tattooing/surgery if a woman wants it/is really struggling without the nipples. But at this stage, I’m not even close. Hey – the tat wouldn’t hurt at least – cause I still can’t feel my chest! But the operation using a skin flap from the site, or from my groin – no thanks.
