Fact or fiction: Butter makes your breasts grow

 

Check these out, too...

  • Turning 16--but I don't want to grow up
  • I'm only 13--why did my breasts stop growing?
  • Tell us what YOU think: How do you boost your body confidence?
  • Do guys only care about chest size?
  • Do these blue veins on my boobs mean I'm sick or something?
I’m only eight and my boobs are really small. My mom almost bought me a bra, but then said she’d wait until they were bigger. I want them to grow now! Will rubbing butter on them work?

 

I hate to break it to ya, babe, but rubbing butter on your boobs will only make them seriously greasy. Save the Land O’Lakes for a batch of brownies and let your body grow at its own pace. I know it’s frustrating to see your friends and peers developing faster than you, but there’s nothing you can do to speed up puberty. You’ve simply gotta suck it up and wait for your bod to change. Don’t worry! It’ll come soon enough.

At 8 years old? Wowzers, I didn't need to start worrying about my boobs until I was, oh I don't know...5th grade? Because my so-called "friends" (I somehow befriended the popular crowd, I was being used) told me "Girl, you NEED a bra" and "Don't you wear one?" embarrassing because it was on the bus for all the little 4th, 3rd, and 2nd graders to hear, embarrassing!!!!!!!!

honey, your only 8, you shouldn't worry about your bra size! even when you get older, it may seem that bra size matters but, it honestly doesn't. - : )
