Pregnancy or breastfeeding have you feeling too buxom?

You know how people say you can never be too thin or too rich? Well, the FDA has decided you can be too busty.

The polypropylene string method of breast enlargement has been banned in the United States and UK out of health concerns. The procedure involves implanting polypropylene strings that absorb fluid into the breasts, which creates a bust line that keeps increasing over time, often leading to cleavage of cartoon character-like proportions.

Because of the ban, it looks like Maxi Mounds, current holder of the Guinness Book of World Records "Largest Fake Breasts" title will be the uncontested champion for a while. Mounds' mounds (sorry!) measure an eye-popping 60 1/2" and each breast weighs 20 lbs.

So when you're nursing and engorged and feeling like your ginormous chest could NOT get ANY larger, think of Maxi and remember: it could. It really, really could!

Anyone else find this picture totally inappropriate for a parenting/family site? Wow.

Some womens have breast size more than normal, so it is due to hormones imbalance or any other reason. Tell me.

I found the picture to be downright ugly. Outside of a strip club or porn flick, those breasts are totally worthless and icky looking.
Genetics plays a big part, Kavin. My 10 year old is in a B cup and was wearing a trainer in 3rd grade. My 8 year old doesn't need a trainer and probably won't for at least a year. She takes after my late-husband's side of the family.
My apologies to my 10 year old! I'll be happy if I never reach a D cup, but my mom's big ole bra size doesn't give me much hope on that one.

Ok...that is TOTALLY nasty looking. I can only imagine the back pain she is in store for, if she doesn't have it already. I don't know how ANYONE could find that attractive.
