Will my boobs flatten in my sleep?

If you sleep on your stomach, will your boobs not grow or look weird?


There are so many rumors when it comes to puberty and breast growth. Short answer? No way! Breast growth is not at all determined by sleeping position. Contrary to what you may have heard, your breasts, or any other part of you, will not flatten out or deflate. 

 

If you have your period, then sleeping on your stomach might worsen breast soreness because of extra pressure on the breasts, which are more sensitive at that time. The most important thing to do is to sleep in the position that is the most comfortable for you, so that you can get adequate sleep. Remember that is eight to 11 hours of shut-eye for tweens and teens. Sweet dreams!

mod,3 questions with reasons.
1:is a headache a symptom of your period(i had one and my nurse asked right in front of a boy if i did.)
2:does sleeping with a bra on prevent boobs from growing(i do)
3:why do we have periods?
thanks-
Jasmine




1. I dont think its a direct sign. But it may be a side effect of having your period. 2. Theres no evidence for that but its best to sleep without to give them a break from the bra. 3. We have periods to prepare our bodies to give birth. Everything that happens to us during our periods (besides the bleeding) is the same as pregnancy and giving birth. xoxo kerra

Hey girl, no, not at all! People grow at different rates. Just continue to take care of yourself and know your bod is changing — just slowly.

I'm 14 (going into high school, here) and am a 34A. It SUCKS. Yesterday my cousin even called me flat chested...ugh! I always wonder about this, though! I feel like it makes them smaller...but I guess I'm SUPPOSED to be tiny... >.<

i have a question how do the mods work does somebody just pick one and give advice and how long does it take to get posted?




Hey girl,

We have a team of MODs that work to answer all the questions we get, as long as they aren't offenisve/vulgar/too personal in nature. We all have shifts from 10am til 1am and, during our shifts, we answer/approve every question submitted. So you can imagine that, sometimes, we get a LOT of questions to work through! Try to be patient and you can usually expect answer within a few hours, if not sooner Smile

I am in the same situation, I dont have a big chest and wonder almost everyday if they are growing. I just use the hand cup test but then my friend said you could be growing but so could your hands. But I think looking at them in the mirror and seeing if things feel tighter may give a good idea if you are getting bigger.
