I went on a diet 30 years ago--started drinking Diet Pepsi--lost more than 90 lbs, still drinking the Diet Pepsi--isn't that good--think of all the sugar I've avoided. Oh--I did gain the weight back at least most of it. Hey--It's got to be that dang Diet Pepsi. It also responsible for my weight gain.

Although I could have got mine in so many ways already listed on this thread, my Stage IV girlfriend recently reminded me of her trip to Hawaii long ago. Since we both loved to collect rocks, she brought back lava from three of the islands for herself and for me too. Now she tells me a Hawaiian god (Pele) puts a curse on anyone that takes rock off the island. Darn! Why didn't she just stick with a t-shirt from Maui?

Whew! I wanted to go to Hawaii but never got around to it. Guess I'll take it off my bucket-list!

No FireKracker, bumps don't cause BC, they are BC and we get rid of them!

Welcome, mz_mes - so sorry for the loss of your son.

Well, I first posted that my cause was always carrying my heavy purse on my left shoulder.
Then the other day, I got to thinking about how much fun I had playing with those little mercury balls the day the thermometer broke. Seriously! What stupid things DIDN'T we do in the 50s?
Now I've just decided that the warranty on my boobs just expired. Kind of like a car breaking down the day after the warranty expires? I got boobs when I was ten, and right about the time I turned 60, BANG! BC! So it must have been a 50 year warranty.

Whew, switched to the smallest of purses to ensure no more than #4 on LE arm...so should be safe now!
Been thinking...dr said BC takes 3-5 yrs to present...well during that time we had our home sprayed for bugs, scorpions, and other critters. Our whole house inside out sprayed with poison...hummm
Hubby says it's time for pest control, but is there an organic non toxic way to do home defense...
Poison...got Sleeping Beauty too

Blessings, I was almost 15 before I got breasts and BC dx'd at 59 so guess I only had a 45 year warranty and since we were very poor my parents didn't have money to get the 30 year extended warranty! But seems they managed to get them for my sisters 4 and 5 years older than me and don't have BC. Yeah, I'm 3rd with a younger brother so guess I fell into that middle-child area and they say the middle child can get lost in the shuffle.

Patoo, I'm also the middle child..... so I guess being a middle child causes BC. Yup, proven. By the experts, Patoo and Leah.

Thumbsucking till I was five. My parents stopped it by painting it with blue food coloring while I was sleeping and telling me it was rotting and going to fall off. So it was thumbsucking or devious parents that caused my bc.

middle child, left handed, green eyed, and touched my lady garden, before i reached double digits. and i resented having to be a girl, ever since i can remember, until i was midd to late 20's!

Just stumbled on this... shocked to see one of my old threads from "back in the day" still going after 7 years.
I think you may be onto something with the pink chairs. My grandmother had a pink leather sofa (really) when I was little and I spent a lot of time on it. Who knew!

OMG, I've been reading this and now I am so confused---and conflicted..... I'm guilty of just about all these things.....but you know, I was the flattest chested girl until I got to be about 40---then it was like all my prayers from 25 years earlier got answered---so I think it was just a delayed growth spurt that went haywire......

I just found this thread, and it's hilarious!! Thank-you all for the good laughs, along with some insight as to how I got BC. Initially, I tried to figure out what I had done to cause it, and when I couldn't, I decided it was all a crap shoot. But now I know, and I'm so grateful. It's because I was forced to eat sardines while growing up. My sister was a peculiar eater (Tang was one of her things) and she loved sardines as did my father. We ate sardines like tuna fish, and when my parents were having company, my father would make his special "sardine canopies". So there you have it. Thanks all!!

welcome, wenweb! I do like a good Caesar Salad, but have given up cheese and croutons!
Ha ah, maybe it's feeding all those ducks! You know...All those loaves of glutten bread crumbs in the water...hum do ducks get BC?
0 -
Now RMlulu, why you wanna go and jinx the little duckies!!! Not nice. But, did you use real cheese on those crackers or that 'cheese product' (some refer to it as Velveeta?). Hmmmm.....
Welcome wenweb, we have to laugh because it helps prevent recurrence. Welcome back gsg. We had to keep it going until you returned.
Pink leather couch, yeah, that probably contributed. And, I'm left handed and sucked my thumb until I was 12. It's all coming back!
Sigh.

no pink chairs, but I'm a middle child! Of course that's another reason I got it.

Oh my gosh I am finely starting to put the pieces together, I to am left handed, the middle child, and sucked my thumb forever. What would I do without you ladies here to give me the answers I have been looking for!

Just found this thread! Haven't read it all but love reading it so hope no one took my excuse. I loved some weird ass things: the smell of gasoline, running behind the mosquito spraying truck and eating potted meat sandwiches! My mom did make me hold a bar of soap in my mouth when I got too mouthy which was often, but then I learned it was safer to do so where she couldn't hear me!

New here too. Yes, another middle child, who grew up in Southern California smog in the 1940s and 50s. Smog was so thick it would sting my eyes and throat. Must have settled in my mammary glands and finally rebelled when I moved to clean mountain air. If I'd only known......

Anyone else ever use orange juice cans as curlers? That couldn't have been good for us.
0 -
Ha Ha yes, OJ cans to try and straighten my wild wavy hair...which I'm now missing. 1st born, lefty, thumb sucker, mouthy at times...yes soap...refused to eat my peas! Still pick them out of my food...humm...maybe I better start eating peas...do they prevent BC?
Barbie....Barbie....

I used OJ cans as curlers. The worst part about it was that I slept in them (or I should say on them) and they were so f***ing uncomfortable. I don't even remember whether I liked the way my hair looked after a night of agony

Well, my question has been answered here! Left handed, thumb sucker, grew up in Southern California, and I HATE peas! LOL!

I think it was listening to the Monkees so much back in the 60's. And watching their tv show too. Sigh. Damn that Davy Jones.

Heehee, you all are sooooooooooooooo funny. Thanks for the giggles and welcome to those who newly found us and got answers. Darn those doctors, never tell us anything, of importance at least.
