Breasts change after childbirth: A new report confirms what some of have (unfortunately) discovered on our own. Although breasts enlarge during pregnancy and while breastfeeding, afterwards, some women go down a half or full cup from their original pre-pregnancy size. Seriously-why couldn't this downsizing happen with other parts of our bodies, too?

Thank you for printing a POSITIVE slant on Britney Spears. As she takes steps to recover from her mental health issues, it gets tiresome to read negative comments about her. Most people are pulling for her recovery; too bad the press can’t seem to support her. You are a great exception!

Women are divorcing their abusive spouse and ending up in a court battle and eventually losing custody of their children. Britney is showing typical signs of a mother going through this. Britney needs to check out of the mental hospital and have the media follower her to the nearest women’s abuse shelter. Britney’s former spouse as father of the year makes me sick. The media acts as if this man can do no wrong. What they do not know is that he is just doing his bad behind closed doors. These men end up mentally and physically abusing their children. I am in the process of creating a web site to help non custodial mothers. Oprah did not warn us of this girls!
