Boob Sweat

So as many of you know I had an incident with my breast a couple weeks ago.  I though going into the doctor was pointless until I got a phone call telling me that the culture they took came back positive with staph infection.  As you can imagine I was horrified and glad I had started taking the antibiotics to kill the infection.  I was talking to a friend and asked how I could have developed an infection so quickly.  My friend asked her mom (a nurse) and I found out A LOT of useful information I wanted to pass along.  Staph infections live on your skin, especially in areas that tend to stay moist (i.e. boob sweat).  This is something I have always been self conscious about and had even gotten to the point of sticking a folded up piece of tissue or cloth between my bosoms in hopes of keeping them dry.  Although this limited the moisture it did not alleviate it.  This nurse suggested using baking soda.  She said it cut down on the moisture and keeps Staph from growing.  She said that if Staph is growing (say under the bosoms or other rolls of skin), it starts to develop a smell.

I have to admit I felt a little silly powdering myself with baking soda and couldn’t help thinking of baking as I powdered my plump white dough looking bosoms.  I have to tell you though I am impressed with how well it worked.  Now because I am heftier and have more than most I needed a freshening powder up mid day, but was so relieved when I didn’t have to peel my boobs apart like two stickers laid together.  So for all you well endowed women and even for those who tend to glisten more than others, I recommend this simple solution!  Haha…hope you don’t have trouble looking me in the face after you read this J
