Today was my very first mammogram ... ah the pleasures of being 41. Actually I was supposed to schedule this last year but I forgot to do it. Okay to be honest it wasn't the best feeling in the world. A little uncomfortable even. But it is necessary so ultimately I'm glad to have done it. Lynne Butcher has a doll pattern that really does a good job of showing you what it felt like in a humorous way. She's called Mammogram Slam.
Below is a picture of Lynne Butcher's doll pattern (not made by me):
I think my breasts actual winced when I read the title and saw the doll! lol or nlol (nervous laughing out loud)

I am very happy you got a mammogram, because my mom lost her breast to cancer that was caught by a mammogram. I also love the doll.

Even my little breasts felt that way when I had my mammogram. It's time for another and I've been putting it off. Thanks for the very humorous reminder!!
