Thank you for sharing your story. ❤️ My Mom never has anything good to say about hers, and her boobs are much smaller and less dense than mine. I'm not looking forward to when I have to start my mammograms... But hopefully they are as easy as yours!

Was going to say this too. The bigger the boob, the less painful because there isn’t as much pull on the skin surrounding it. (Is what my tech said.) I’m hypermobile, so maybe the extra-stretchy collagen helped me too. Honestly, I found the arm/shoulder position more uncomfortable than the squish.

I'm a DD cup, even after lumpectomies, my mom was an AA, except when she was nursing us. (Err, yes, I do favor my paternal grandmother.) Mom found mammograms quite uncomfortable, me, I never had much of a problem. Understandably, it's a lot easier when there's more to squish, you see.

This is nice to know, thank you! I already know I have dense breasts so that's the one thing I suspect might make it a challenge really. I guess I'll find out when I find out :)

Much easier when there’s more there to squish. More difficult with smaller breasts.
