My Menopause Blog: Dolly Stage

I've just learned something.

I thought I was going to instantly turn into a pear shape...Artistically known as a Rubenesque Woman, shown here in this painting and thus named after the 1577-1640 Flemish painter, Peter Paul Ruben.

But no...not so quick. The pear stage comes later, much later.

First, my breasts are going to get very, very tender and then there's a good chance they will get bigger. So Dolly first. Pear second.

All this without medical intervention. Tell this to the implant makers.
