Breast Health

Breast Health Care - A Basic Approach

There is need for every woman to do a regular self-examination on herself. This will help you to be familiar with your breast, and helps to detect any changes that may occur, and perhaps cancer in its early stages. One of the most important methods of enhancing healthy breast tissues by self-examination is by regular breast massage on yourself.

A regular breast massage will help you get used to normal breast tissue related condition that may occur due to hormone fluctuation, or during your monthly cycles. These may include pre-menstrual tension and discomfort, uneven or lumpy tissue, petoralis muscle pain, mastitis, milk production in lactating women. All these respond well to a regular massage.

One key factor in preserving and promoting healthy breast tissue is the consistent flow of the lymph fluids. The lymphatic system is responsible for the removal of toxins from our body. It serves to remove cellular debris and waste by products of normal cellular function. The lymph carries immune cells for fighting against infection and tissue growth like cancer. To insure a healthy flow of lymph fluids to promote healthy breast tissue regular movements, and regular breast massage are absolutely essential.

Another important factor in the promotion of breast health care is the intake of natural ingredients that help to promote breast health care based on current research on natural hormone balance, systematic detoxification and enhancing immune function. These ingredients should contain:

1. Plant base Estrogen:- help to balance female hormone agent.
2. Anti-oxidants:- doubles as phytoestrogen immune booster, and anti tumor.
3. Phytonutrients:- important disease fighters that seek out and destroy aberrant cell growth.
4. Detoxifying agents:- rids the body of toxins including harmful estrogen.

Our present day busy lifestyle has placed our dietary dependency mostly on junk and fast foods. This is of course unhealthy. Apart from the factors mentioned above there is need to adopt a healthy lifestyle that should also involve, healthy diet, consistent exercise, and stress reduction. These are the essential to basic breast health care.

Breast Cancer Prevention: Lifestyle for Healthy Breasts

It has been estimated that by the year 2020, the number of women who get breast cancer may be as high as 1 in 5. That number is staggering. With the help of a "healthy breasts" lifestyle, you can defy those odds, and help to beat those ominous forecasted statistics. You can help change the future.

Chances are, if you are a woman, or even a man for that matter, you know someone or at least have an acquaintance who has either battled breast cancer, or succumbed to the disease. I am no different.

My Story?

I am 31 years old, and about eight years ago a very dear relative of mine, my aunt, passed away from complications directly related to breast cancer. About 3 years before her passing, she went to the doctor because of a lump in her breast. After going through several rounds of radiation and chemotherapy, we all thought she had beat the cancer and was going to enjoy a long healthy life.

After being in remission for about a year, the cancer returned with a vengeance. Before we knew it, the cancer had spread to her lymph nodes, her back and her liver. She passed away, a shadow of her former self, and a very warm, brave and compassionate person was gone from our lives, just like that.

I wanted to share the story to convey the pressing importance that we take good care of our bodies, and our breasts, so we can help ensure our long, healthy stay here in this world.

Some Lifestyle Tips for Breast Cancer Prevention :

1.) Cut the unhealthy, saturated fats and substitute with healthy fats like olive oil. If you use butter, use organic butter.
Actually, it's really best to buy all organic dairy products, since toxins like chemicals and pesticides tend to build up much more in animal fat - which is what dairy is made from, animal fat and biproducts.

2.) Cut out the underwire, push up, and tight-fitting bras. It has been speculated for years that more pressure on your breasts can result in more toxin buildup in the breast area, as well as agitate any tendencies toward tissue abnormalities. Wear looser fitting bras whenever possible. Even better, go braless when you don't need one.

3.) Moderate breast massage may be helpful in breast cancer prevention. Some studies have shown this practice to be therapeutic and speculation is that the massage helps free the breasts of toxins and improves circulation.

4.) Get plenty of antioxidants in your diet. Foods rich in antioxidants, which help defend against cancer-causing free radicals, are as follows:

a. Dark green leafy vegetables

b. Brightly colored fruits

c. Red Wine

d. Tomatoes

e. Garlic

f. Tea (especially green tea)

g. Berries

5.) Moderate exercise, or at least not having a sedentary lifestyle.

6.) Get organic foods whenever possible. The pesticides, chemicals, heavy metals and other general toxins that are in
our food, our water and produce just seem to be getting worse. Many speculate the increasing number of cancer cases is partly to blame on the foods we eat and the water we drink. Also try to drink distilled or filtered water rather than spring or tap water.

7.) Smoking and drinking alcohol have both been shown to be possible risk factors, so it goes without saying what needs to be done if either of these habits are a regular part of your lifestyle.

We can never prevent any disease 100%, and it is true that breast cancer has also been linked to a hereditary factor. However, this doesn't mean we can't dramatically bump the odds in our favor and enjoy a disease free, cancer free life.

Encourage Healthy Breasts With Self Breast Massage

Breast cancer and how to prevent it is a concern for us all. I've noticed there is very little focus on what we can do to help prevent it. Rather the focus is on finding a cure by funding pharmaceutical companies. I hope someday a cure is actually revealed, but in the meantime, let's talk about the things you can do for yourself so you can actively contribute to your own health and well-being.

One topic I never hear discussed in the media is stagnation in the breast tissue. The people that discuss this are those well-educated in Chinese Medicine. These folks are few, but I can help get the word out on their behalf, and so can you.

Stagnation in the breast tissue can occur when there is little movement in and around the breasts. Various factors can contribute to it, many of which we don't ordinarily consider. For example, did you know that breast tissue collects debris and toxins from cosmetics, including deodorant and antiperspirant? Other culprits are calcium deposits, scar tissue from trauma, tight chest, neck, and back muscles, the side effects of radiation exposure, and sluggish qi flow, or "energy." Each of these can reduce the healthy flow of blood and lymph through your breasts. They can also create low levels of oxygen in breast tissue.

Oxygen in our breast tissue is an important consideration. Cancer cells tend to collect around dead cells and areas with little oxygen. They don't survive in a highly-oxygenated environment. To encourage healthier breast tissue, it is wise to get movement through the breasts and motion through sluggish tissue.

One way to do encourage this movement is with breast massage. I think this can be done instead of your monthly self-exam. I'm not convinced the current way we are taught to examine our breasts is ideal. Searching for cancer and suspicious lumps is not where I want to focus my mind. For many women it triggers fear. That can't be helpful. When you do self-massage you become aware of the landscape of your breasts and how your breasts feel under the surface. If there is any change to what you know to be normal for yourself, you will know right away and can have it checked.

Weekly breast massage is a nurturing, sensible approach to breast health. It is done with the intention of healing and helps you become familiar with how your breasts normally feel. I believe this is a more effective way to keep aware of your body, rather than the approach of searching for unusual lumps.

There is a massage technique from Medical Qi Gong that is said to break the cycle of disease in the breasts as well as move the tissue and prevent it from stagnating. This is simply to massage both breasts in a circular manner 36 times inward followed by 36 times outward. This technique is further explained and demonstrated in a video called "Medical Qi Gong for Breast Health" by Jerry Alan Johnson, which can be found online.

I recommend using a breast balm or oil in your weekly massage. "Breast Balm" by MoonMaidBotanicals is designed for breast massage and contains poke root and calendula-infused organic olive oil with St. John's Wort and cedar. These herbs are known to give relief to breast swelling and lumps. You can inquire about it at your natural food store or order it online. Meanwhile, I hope you will familiarize yourself with this very simple way to keep your own breast tissue flowing, fluid, and healthy.

Dreaming - the Breast Cancer Vaccine

I have a dream. Well, I have many dreams, but this one is about an easy, almost painless means of ensuring that no woman ever has to face, fight or survive breast cancer again. A vaccine. Am I just dreaming? Maybe. Maybe not.

Mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) is a proven cause of breast cancer in field and experimental mice. MMTV was discovered way back in 1936. MMTV-like viral genetic material has been identified in human breast tumors, but it's not known whether it actually causes tumor development. Research has uncovered a human mammary tumor virus, HMTV, which is 95-98% similar to the mouse virus (MMTV), so they are believed to be the same virus.

HMTV has been found in approximately 40 percent of all human breast cancer (bc) specimens examined, in 60 percent of pregnancy-associated bc's, and in 71 percent of inflammatory bc's. Women whose tumors show evidence of the virus have antibodies to it 95 percent of the time, whereas normal, healthy women have antibodies to the virus less than 5 percent of the time.

A research team, led by Vincent Tuohy, PhD, at Cleveland Clinic's Lerner Research Institute, have developed a vaccine that prevents breast cancer tumors from forming in mice, while inhibiting the growth of existing tumors. The vaccine contains the antigen a-lactalbumin. In the latest study, genetically cancer-prone mice were vaccinated - half with a vaccine containing the antigen and half with a vaccine that didn't contain the antigen. None of the mice vaccinated with the antigen developed breast cancer, while all of the other mice did.

Unlike the FDA approved cervical cancer vaccine and liver cancer vaccines, both of which target viruses (human papillomavirus and Hepatitis B viruses), this mouse vaccine targets cancer formation itself. Tuohy explains that the key in developing a human breast cancer vaccine is therefore to find a target within the tumor that isn't typically found in a healthy person. In the case of breast cancer, they are targeting a-lactalbumin, a protein found in the majority of breast cancers but not in healthy women, except during lactation. The vaccine is expected to stimulate a woman's immune system to target a-lactalbumin, stopping tumor formation without damaging healthy breast tissue.

The hoped for strategy would be to vaccinate women over 40, when breast cancer risk begins to increase and pregnancy becomes less likely. The vaccine would also be an alternative option for younger women with a heightened risk of breast cancer, instead of prophylactic mastectomies.

While there is still controversy over just how many breast cancers contain a-lactalbumin, Tuohy is hopeful that his findings might lead to vaccines for other types of cancer, and so am I. His vaccine is ready to be tested for safety in humans, but guess what. Komen has turned him down for funding 3 times and Avon has refused to even consider it. Hmmmm.... Maybe Mr. Tuohy scared the queens of pinkwashing when he said, ""If it works in humans the way it works in mice, this will be monumental. We could eliminate breast cancer."

I first heard about the possibility of one or more breast cancer viruses from Dr. Kathleen Ruddy, founder of The Breast Health and Healing Foundation. Talk About Health hosted a question/answer session with Dr. Ruddy, which is a great place to start if you're interested in learning more about this topic.

3 Healthy Habits Reduce Breast Cancer Risk

Even if you have a close relative with breast cancer you'll want to know about the results of a new study. It appears you can reduce breast cancer risk by sticking to three simple habits - being physically active, keeping your weight under control and drinking in moderation, if at all - are keys to protecting yourself.

Even if you have a family history, these three behaviors were found to lower your risk, compared to women who don't do these things.

The team wanted to examine the effects of lifestyle habits on breast cancer risks in an effort to show those with a strong family history of the disease that there were things they could do to impact their own risk.

The team analyzed data on women aged 50-79 from the Women's Health Initiative study that began in 1993. During 5.4 years of follow up, just under 2000 of those women were diagnosed with invasive cancer of the breast. Women were excluded from the study who had a personal history of breast cancer, or who had a family history of early onset cancer (before age 45) so the team could look at the impact of lifestyle factors on cancer risk.

Following all three healthy habits brought down risk of cancer of the breast for women with, and without, a late onset family history. If you had a family history yet did all three of the healthy habits, six out of every 1,000 women would get breast cancer in a year. In contrast, about 7 of every 1,000 women developed breast cancer each year if they had a late onset family history but did none of the three healthy behaviors.

If a woman didn't have a family history, and still followed all three healthy habits, about 3.5 of every 1,000 were diagnosed with breast cancer each year, compared to almost 4.6 per 1,000 per year for those who didn't have the history and followed none of the good-for-you behaviors.

For the study, regular physical activity was 20 minutes of heart rate raising exercise at least five times each week. Moderate alcohol intake was considered less than one drink each day. Body weight was measured according to body mass index (BMI), with anything from 18.5 to under 25 being considered a healthy weight.

The good news for anyone with a strong family history of this devastating disease is that you can do something to reduce your own risk. You don't have to follow in family members' footsteps... this research shows it's up to you, and what you do for your body.

It seems any woman can reduce breast cancer risk by keeping herself at a healthy weight, being active (45 to 60 minutes of intentional activity per day) on a regular basis, and keeping your intake of alcohol in check.

How To Keep Your Breasts Healthy And Disease Free

Breasts are a very important part of a woman's body and when we talk of breast health one thing that comes to our mind is breast cancer. It is a very important thing to keep breasts free from cancer as well as look after their overall health.

On an average breasts normally start developing around at the time of puberty but it is just an assumption because as each individual is different so in some cases they might develop early like at an age of eleven years while in others they develop sometime around at the age of 13 or 14. But no matter when they start developing you should try to provide them with all they need to keep themselves healthy. Another important fact is that breast cancer is more prevalent in older women than in young women so age does play a very vital role in getting breast cancer.

Breasts perform a variety of functions in a woman's body from sexual stimulation to breast-feeding to attract men they help a woman in all departments. For a new-born baby breasts are the main source of nutrition thus an effort should be made to keep them perfectly healthy and eat a diet which increases the nutritional value of breasts milk.

They also play a very vital role in attracting men as we all know there are so many women who opt for breast enhancement surgery in order to look more attractive to men. Some women can even achieve satisfying orgasms only through stimulation of their breasts.

How To Maintain Optimal Breast Health

There are many ways through which a woman can keep her breast healthy. Let us lay out some of them.

1. Keep Yourself Fit

It is very important to keep yourself fit for your overall health. Exercise regularly and do some exercises for your breasts which can help in circulation of blood and lymphatic fluids into your breasts and out of them efficiently.

2. Avoid Harmful Substances

Alcohol and smoking are very injurious to the health of your breasts and research suggests that women who drink regularly are at a higher risk of getting breast cancer.

3. Healthy Diet

It is quite evident that breasts have a very high content of fat as such women should try avoiding a fat rich diet. Women should eat a diet high in fiber and include a lot of green vegetables in their dietary regime as they provide them with iron and other essential vitamins and minerals necessary for keeping a woman healthy and her breasts tender and firm.

Diet and Natural Foods to Have Healthy Breasts

It is a dream for very women to have healthy breast along with a healthy body. Healthy and well shaped breasts not only form an integral part of the beauty of women but also a medium to nourish the new born after attaining motherhood. With the rising incidences of breast cancer it has compelled almost every woman to take special care in maintaining healthy breasts and avert the risk of cancer. Though women have become more conscious about this dreadful disease, still there are many who do some things that are unhealthy for breasts. Statistics reveal that 30-50% of breast cancers can be avoided by following the right kind of diet and regular physical regime. Also by avoiding some damaging life styles it is easy to maintain well shaped and healthy breasts.

Diet - Diet is very important in maintaining the good health of the breasts. Colored fruits like orange, banana, citruses, carrots and green vegetables are rich in vitamins and anti oxidants that prevent cancer and also slow down the aging process.

Avoiding carbohydrate rich foods and processed foods are good for healthy breasts.

Healthy fats like omega-3-fatty acids, nuts, avocados and coconut oil are essential for healthy breasts. Bran, porridges made from whole grains are rich in fibers that are beneficial for the female hormones.

Green and white tea is rich in anti oxidants and drinking 4-5 cups a day helps to maintain healthy breasts.

Xenoestrogen substances are chemical pollutants that must be avoided as they are the prime causes of breast cancer. They react with the estrogen hormone resulting in the under functioning of the hormonal system. The sources are pesticide loaded products, plastics, household detergents, commercial meat and diary products and poisoning effects of lead and mercury. Their effects can be encountered by consuming cabbages, broccoli, sprouts, kale that are rich in anti oxidants.

Too much smoking and drinking caffeine products must be avoided as they produce numerous free radicals that destroy the normal cells

Natural foods can fight carcinogens; fruits like cherries, grapes are rich in Ellagic acid that reduces the chances of breast cancer. These fruits also contain bioflavonoid that prevents the production of cancer cells. Chlorophyll, the green pigment found in plants prevents the damage of DNA of the cells. Food rich in beta carotene like carrots, pumpkins prevents cancer.

Breast massage can be highly beneficial to maintain healthy breasts. Studies show that the breast tissues can store lots of chemical wastes that are harmful for the body. Careful massaging of the breasts helps in flushing out the harmful toxins and wastes through the lymphatic system and restores the nutrients in the tissue.

Regular check ups of the breast after menopause through mammography or thermography must be done to ensure good health of the breasts. Thermography is preferred as the X-rays in mammograms may prove harmful to the breasts.

5 Tips For Ensuring Healthy Breasts and Preventing Breast Cancer

Did you know that 30%-50% of breast cancer could be prevented with a healthy diet and getting regular exercise? Sounds too simple to be true, I know. But the human body is amazing when it comes to taking care of itself. Good nutrition is important but you also need to avoid xenoestrogens which are toxic to your body. Follow these tips below and you'll have healthy breasts and you'll be taking a proactive role in preventing breast cancer.

1 - Focus on Good Nutrition

- Avoid simple carbohydrates and processed oils (hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oil).
- Choose fresh natural foods, not canned and processed foods.
- Choose organic, it's been proven to have more vitamins and minerals.

Choose good healthy fats. Our body requires good fat to function properly. Too many people eat processed vegetable oil or partially and hydrogenated oil which are harmful to the body.
-Omega 3 essential fatty acids (from ocean fish)
- Nuts
- Avocados
- Coconut oil
- Even butter and cream as long as it's from organic, grass fed cows

Choose good protein sources. If your vegetarian it's important that you get some form of protein from beans, tofu or nuts. If you're a meat eater, follow the guidelines below:
- When choosing meat, buy organic, from grass fed animals (it's more lean and healthier)
- Don't overcook proteins, (but do cook to a safe temperature for the type of meat, a medium rare steak is alright, but you wouldn't eat your chicken that way)

2 - Avoid Xenoestrogen Substances

Xenoestrogen substances are a major cause of breast cancer and other female health problems. They are chemical compounds from environmental pollutants. They mimic estrogen and attach to your estrogen receptor sites and cause the endocrine system to dysfunction.

Xenoestrogen Sources
- Commercial meat and dairy products
- Pesticide residues on commercial produce
- Soft plastics
- Microwave cooking in plastic
- Laundry detergents and household cleaning products
- Heavy metals like lead and mercury

Counteracting Xenoestrogen Substances
- Consume more foods like broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, kale and turnips. Or take a good supplement that's capable of getting rid of xenoestrogens
- Detox your liver with foods like garlic, onions, cabbage and cauliflower. Or detoxify with supplements or a cleanse designed for removing environmental toxins from the body.

3 - Use Natural Foods As Prevention Remedies

There are lots of nutritious foods that promote good breast health and prevent breast cancer. The trick is to actually eat them. If you can't get the nutrients from your foods, then supplementing might be a good
option for you, especially if you have a family history of breast cancer.

Ellagic Acid is known for stopping carcinogens from intiating cancer cell growth and is found in in cherries, grapes, walnuts, raspberries, strawberries and pomegranates.

Bioflavonoids detoxify harmful estrogens and help prevent the production of cancer cells.

They are found in found in citrus, grapes, onions and buckwheat.

Lignans prevent the growth of tumors and are found in nuts and seeds, especially flax seed.

Beta carotene naturally protects against cancer and can be found in foods like beans, carrots, cantaloupe, pumpkin, winter squash, yams, broccoli, brussel sprouts, spinach and sweet potatoes.

Lutein and Zeaxanthin provide cancer fighting benefits for pre-menopausal women and women with a family history of breast cancer. The best food sources are found in collard greens, spinach, kale, corn and most yellow vegetables.

Lycopene helps eliminate free radicals from cigarette smoke and can be found in tomatoes, carrots, guava, ruby red grapefruit and watermelon.

Catechins have a powerful antioxidant effect and are found in black and green tea.

Chlorophyll, the green pigment found in plants, prevents damage to the DNA in cells which occurs when normal cells transform into cancerous cells.

4 - Be Positive and Reduce Stress

We know the damage that stress causes to our body so controlling stress is always a good thing. But having a positive attitude can be very helpful in controlling our health too. Learn to pamper yourself to reduce stress.

- Take a walk in nature
- Get a massage
- Garden
- Listen to good music
- Take a bubble bath or soak in hot tub

Breast Massage

Regular breast massage helps to improve circulation and lymph drainage, it decreases symptoms of PMS, menopause and menstrual cramps, and decreases the discomfort from pregnancy and breast feeding. I have a link to an instructional video on my website. Getting trapped lymph fluid to move is good for healthy breasts and can alleviate pain and tenderness. You may eventually eliminate lumps if done regularly.

5 - Switch from Mammography to Thermography

Avoid mammograms and consider thermography instead. I know this sounds a bit radical. But do some research on mammograms vs. thermograms. Thermography can detect abnormalities at the cellular level which could be 10 years before you might otherwise notice them and there is no harm done to sensitive breast tissue.

Mammogram x-rays increase your risk of cancer. A typical mammogram of both breasts will expose you to 2,720 RADs (Radiation Absorbed Dose) that's 8 pictures at 340 RADS each. And they encourage us to get a mammogram every year. The non-direct natural radiation that we as humans absorb every year is only 300 RADs. There are times when x-rays are necessary, but if there is a safer and effective alternative to routine yearly mammograms, why not check it out?

There is lots of money raised every year in support of finding a cure for breast cancer, which is great. But I wish there was more of a focus on educating women on how to prevent breast cancer. Because it all boils down to good nutrition and making healthy choices. By adopting these lifestyle changes in our life, we'd not only prevent breast cancer, but we would prevent all kinds of other illnesses and diseases as well.

Halloween Sexy Costumes - Adding Tang to Halloween

Witch costumes touch an ordinary gathering with magic. Witches are often associated with darkness and evil and hence, the lady in the witch's dress may end up looking wicked and harsh.

These days, these costumes are becoming quite the vogue and can be easily picked up online at low costs. Couples may make a grand entry in a Halloween party dressed as a sexy witch and wizard.

A sexy witch is made of more than just a witch costume. She needs the accessories mentioned below:

o Metallic stick on nails

The most popular color for making sexy witch costumes is black. But this is no thumb rule. Any dark shade may be worn. In fact, if you are portraying a good witch, you may even choose light shades.

There is still one thing missing - the fake witch's broom which seals the sexy witch costume get up. During Halloween parties, fun can be had by waving the broom in circles as though casting a spell.

How Sexy Is the Cherry Blossom Tattoo Design and What Is Its Symbolism?

Recently I have been doing a lot of research about tattoo designs and their symbolism. The cherry blossom tattoo design is one I find tremendously sexy and the great thing about this is that this flower really has truly interesting Asian symbolism that can personally have a great deal of meaning. Although this beautifully flowered tattoo is visually appealing, that alone should not persuade you into getting one. We are going to explore a little cultural significance today regarding the cherry blossom and if perhaps this style tattoo design might have some meaning in your life. Obviously, you wouldn't want to get inked without knowing the symbolism prior to turning your body into an artist's canvas.

The cherry blossom truly is a very sexy, feminine tattoo design, that when inked properly by a talented artist is really very remarkable to look at and admire. You can guarantee that the folks admiring your artwork will initially only see it as sexy artwork, but when you explain its symbolism, the tattoo becomes even that more sexy and attractive and makes you a more interesting individual.

•Japanese Symbolism

In Japanese Cultural traditions, the cherry blossom is deeply rooted in symbolism. The brief lifespan of the blossoms have been, and currently are associated with human mortality and its relatively brief existence. For the Japanese, the period of flowering and the subsequent loss in a brief period of time symbolizes the fragility of human existence, and its relatively short lifespan. That is why in many of these designs you will see the petals falling off the tree branch. This association with mortality has been used in traditional Japanese art as well the more recent art forms manga or anime.

What it all is basically saying is that the cherry blossom tattoo design represents the appreciation for the life we have been given, how frail it is, and is symbolic of making the most of your brief time on this Earth. Some people may not want this type of symbolism tattooed on their skin as it is a reminder of our mortality, but if taken in a positive and reflective perspective, it is a celebration of life and a reminder that the hard times we face will not last forever.

•Chinese Symbolism

For the Chinese, the cherry blossom is a very significant symbol of power. Typically it represents feminine beauty and sexuality and often holds an idea of power or feminine dominance. If you are a strong-willed woman who celebrates your individuality, the cherry blossom tattoo design might be a perfect choice for you. In Chinese cultural lore the cherry blossom is often the symbol of love.

•Is A Sexy Cherry Blossom Tattoo Design For You?

Recently, and what I mean by recently is the acceptance to the norm for body art in today's society, which has struggled through from the mid 20th century to today. More often than not recently, the cherry blossom tattoo design is an accompanying design as opposed to standing alone on its own symbolism. This is truly regrettable in that as beautiful, sexy, and symbolic as the cherry blossom design is, it seems a shame to overwhelm it with more powerful pieces such as sleeves and large back pieces.

I find the cherry blossom tattoo design very sexy and attractive when properly inked. The tattoo conforms very nicely to the natural curves of the female form. If you have decided to get a cherry blossom design it is very important to find a tattoo artist who is experienced in this type of art and who understands the symbolism in the Asian culture.

Trends in Modern Bra Wear

History of the Bra

The history of the bra is extensive. Almost since the dawn of time women have worn bra's either to enhance or minimize their figure. Bust-lines have been increased and decreased, rounded and stretched and even spread out throughout time following society's trends and fashions.

Bra's have been worn by women the world over since 2000 BC, when the first corset, created of leather was worn to support and outline the breasts. The ancient Greeks wore a type of bra that pushed the breasts upwards but left the breast itself naked.

During the 13th century, the practice of minimizing the breasts became very popular. Women often wore short bodices that flattened rather than enhanced a woman's bodice. This changed however during the 15th century when a women's chest became the focal point of her garments... it was popular for the upper portion of the breast to be pushed above the garments worn by a woman in order to give the appearance of full cleavage and a rounded bodice.

Trends in Modern Bra Wear

Bras are in. Today bras can be fashioned to meet any persons unique style and comfort preferences. In recent years plus and full size bras have become the norm, as more and more women turn to plastic surgery to enhance their bust line. In some cities it isn't uncommon to see women who might be categorized as DD's, EE's and even FF's thanks to modern technology.

Fortunately, there is a bra available to fit almost any woman anywhere. There are even bras that are fashioned as "outer wear". Celebrities are among the more common members of society to tout such bold and daring styles.

For the bold but slightly less daring, sheer and see through bras are a great option. Bras, whether made with or without under wires, are made from silk, cotton, Lycra, spandex and even flannel.

Style has as much to do with what's available and "hot" as what a woman finds comfortable and supportive.

The first formal "bras" were patented in the US in the mid 1800s, as tortuous corsets began to fall out of style with more comfort seeking women.

Different Bra Types

Many different bra types have been created since the early days of it's existence. No longer do women have to struggle to fit their upper body and chest into contraptions made of whalebone and steel (the common materials used to fashion early corsets). Rather, today's traditional bras are made of a variety of luxurious fabrics, meant to support, uplift, enhance and show off a woman's breasts (though you can still find some that minimize, which for many women is a bonus).

See through and sheer bras, specialty bras, nursing and maternity bras, sports bras and even strapless and backless bras are all the rage in modern times. There is a bra available to fit any bust size and any individual style preference available. You can even have a bra custom made if you like. Though the corset is not completely banned from existence, new designs make wearing the contraption or similar ones much more feasible, and women no longer have to suffer pain and discomfort from wearing them.

Interestingly, the bra did not gain popularity until about the 1920s during the time of the flappers when a flat chest was suddenly in, and women looked to minimize their bust line rather than enhance it.

Among the first companies to jump on the bra making bandwagon during this time was the Maidenform Company, who created bra sizes in different bust size categories. As the breast minimizing trend of the early 20s faded and society entered the 30s, the idea of shape as acceptable became popular again, and Maidenform made an effort to make bras that would meet every woman's needs, including plus and full size bras.

Warner's was among the first to create a cup sizing system that ranged from size A to size D, which are still standard sizes.

At no time does a bra prove more useful than during exercise or during pregnancy/maternity. You can rest assured that sports bra's which provide support during intense physical activity are most appreciated by women with large chests. Can you imagine what it is like to run without one?

Pregnant women now have nursing and maternity bras available to them, which make breastfeeding in public a much more easily accomplished task. New designs enable discreet feeding and offer comfortable support at a time when a woman's breast size may change or fluctuate in a time span of weeks or months. Some of the more popular varieties are fashioned after the sports bra style, that allow for fluctuations in size.

Finding the Right Fit

Fit is EVERYTHING when it comes to wearing a bra. More than 90% of the female population at one time or another buys a bra that doesn't fit properly. Fortunately you can easily measure yourself to ensure that you get a proper fit.

Finding the right bra size depends on two things: band size and cup size. Band size is usually measured in numbers, and generally ranges from 32 to 40+ (even numbers only). Cup size is alphabetical, and as discussed can range from an A to an EE or more.

To measure your chest you'll need a tape measure. Wrap the tap lightly around your rib cage just below your bust line. You should then add five inches to this measurement, and that is your band size.

To measure your cup size, loosely wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of the bust. For most women this is about where the nipple falls, or about mid-breast. You should then subtract the measurement you get from your band size. The difference measured equates to your cup size and runs as follows:

• 1 inch - A cup
• 2 inches - B cup
• 3 inches - C cup
• 4 inches - D cup

There are many thoughts on which bras are best. Some women prefer under wire bras because they believe they offer the best support. For some women, including nursing women however, under wire versions can be uncomfortable. Fortunately there is an incredibly broad selection of no wire bras that are flattering and just as supportive as their wire counterparts.

If you are not sure which you prefer, I recommend trying one of each. It won't take long before you decide which works best for you.

The Different Types of Women's Bras

Often times there is a variety of bras that are available on the market for women to choose from when trying to purchase a bra for that special occasion and known all the different types of bras will help women to know which bra they need. Cleavage bra is a bra with a center gore that dips low in front between the breasts so that your cleavage and not your bra are seen under low-cut garments, which creates the appearance of increased cleavage with a deep front, angled cups, and narrow center gore. A compression bra presses the breast tissue against the chest to reduce motion and usually refers to a sports bra. Convertible bra refers to bras with straps that fully or partially detach and can be worn multiple ways and usually the straps have small hooks that can disconnect and reattach in different forms.

Crossover bra is a wire-free bra with fabric seamed to create an "X" in the front center for support. Demi bra refers to how the bra cups are cut and only covers half of the breast, because the upper half of the bra cup is cut away to expose the upper part of the breasts while the shoulder straps are usually set farther apart. Encapsulation bra is primarily used in defining the construction of a sports bra. Full coverage bra refers to how the bra cups are cut. A full cup bra completely covers most of the breast and will not cause an indentation along the top of the breast and offers added support. Full figure bra are for women who wear bras sizes 32-36DD and 38-42C-DD or larger are classified as full figure women, which are made in these sizes are often specially designed to give additional support.

Full support bra is the banding under the cups, substantial side wings, and closures with two or more hooks offer supreme breast support. Liquid filled bra have filled cups to give the look of added breast size. Mastectomy bra is designed for women who have had one or both breasts surgically removed. Maternity bra is designed for women who are pregnant as they offer more support with a wider band and an underbust band. Minimizer bras reduces the projection of the wearer's breasts by holding the breast tissue snugly and redistributing breast flesh more towards the underarm and the center front.

Molded bras refers to cups that are lined or padded to hold their shape, even when the bra is not being worn. Nursing bra are similar to a maternity bra, but with the additional feature of cup openings to allow for breastfeeding without removing the bra. Padded bra have padding added to the cups to add size and definition, which can be removed. Post-operative bras are designed to help make recovery from breast surgery more comfortable. Push-Up bras have heavily padded cups designed to press the breasts. Racer back bras have back straps anchored towards the center of the back, which curve between the shoulder blades.

Seamed bras have seams holding together multiple pieces of fabric to create one cup. Seamless bras have cups made from one piece of fabric that has been molded into a permanent shape for a smooth look under clothing. A shaper bra is made from a form-fitting fabric designed to slim the silhouette of the wearer. Shelf bras have an underwire with little or no cups designed for show and not for support. Displays most of the breasts, including the nipples. Sports bras are worn during exercise that minimizes breast bouncing.

Strapless bras have wide sides and no shoulder straps or removable straps. Training bras refers to a beginner bra for young girls without a cup size. Triangle bras are designed like a string bikini with triangles of fabric covering the nipples held together by thin straps that usually tie closed. Underwire bras have sewn-in "wiring" that runs underneath the breast in each bra cup in a "U" shape.

Ideal Bras for Holiday Party Dresses

With trick-or-treating in the bag, people are starting to gear up for the busy holiday season that's just around the corner. Buying gifts, attending holiday parties and finding that perfect holiday dress are all on the agenda. And while this time of year can be stressful, attending holiday parties and feeling fantastic in your dressy clothes shouldn't be.

To ensure that you look your absolute best in your holiday party dress, it's imperative to choose the perfect bra to wear underneath. Unsightly bra straps, exposed bras that aren't pretty enough to be shown, strapless bras that fall down, or worst of all - going without any bra at all -- are a few of the pitfalls to avoid when choosing lingerie to pair with your dress.

Knowing what lingerie to wear underneath a party dress is a perplexing complication in the shopping process for many women. In fact, some women turn down an otherwise fabulous dress simply because they don't know what bra to wear with it. But rest assured, finding a great bra doesn't have to be difficult. The following guidelines will lead you in the right direction toward finding the ideal bra this holiday season.

Straps

If you have a strapless dress, the most obvious and safe choice is a strapless bra. Many convertible bras have removable straps, so you may have one in your lingerie collection already that will work.

Bras that have decorative straps with embroidery or lace can look very pretty showing underneath a strapless dress or under the straps of a dress. The important thing here is to stay with the same color family of your dress. In other words, a black lace bra strap showing underneath a black cocktail dress looks sophisticated - a fuchsia bra strap does not. Likewise, consider the style you are conveying with your ensemble as well as the event you're attending. If the event is an office party and your overall look is classic and sophisticated, revealing your bra straps may not be the best choice.

Padding

The amount of padding to choose is mainly a question of personal preference. Some women like to feel more natural and opt for a lightly padded bra such as a bralette or other bra with minimal padding. If you are a woman with a petite bust, there are many options available in the Petite Lingerie market that will enhance what you have and make fitting into a holiday dress easier. For point of reference, Petite Lingerie is made specifically for women with AA bra cup sizes, A bra cup sizes or B bra cup sizes.

If you have a petite bra cup size and prefer a bra with more padding for your holiday dress, look for a push-up bra that has padded inserts or "bumps" that push breast tissue up and in, therefore creating maximum cleavage. No matter how padded your push-up bra is, make sure it is comfortable and fits you properly in the cups and band.

Color

When choosing a bra for your holiday dress, it is important to coordinate the bra color with that of your dress. For example, a black bra is likely to show through a lighter color dress. Contrary to popular belief, a nude bra is the best option to wear under anything white, rather than a white bra. The closer the shade of nude is to your skin, the more the bra will disappear under your clothing.

Bra Cups

If your dress has light or smooth material such as silk or satin, you will want a smooth cup bra (T-shirt bra) with no lace on the cups since any texture on the bra will show through your dress. In the case of a dress with heavier material or texture such as ruffles or faux fur at the bust area, you can play around with the texture of your bra since this area will be concealed. In this case, lace bras or bras with ornate embroidery are fine choices.

Design

Depending on the cut and design of your holiday dress, you may need to select a specialty bra such as one of the following:

• Plunge Bras: For low-cut dresses you will want to select a plunge bra that is cut in a "v" shape to ensure that your bra doesn't peek out in front.
• Strapless Bras: Ideal for strapless dresses, this type of bra can be used for any style dress including halter dresses. Be sure to find one with a proper fit to keep it from slipping down. Also check that the dress does not come down too far in back, therefore revealing your bra band.
• Adhesive Bras: For those "tricky" dress styles such as backless designs, you will want an adhesive bra. These backless, strapless, wire-free bras have light adhesive that gently adheres to your breasts without leaving residue. They have a front closure and can be adjusted based on the amount of cleavage desired. Adhesive bras are ideal for dresses that cut lower on the sides or in back.
• Convertible Bras: Most convertible bras can be worn traditionally, strapless or halter style, making them ideal for most dress designs. It is wise to have at least one convertible bra in your lingerie collection because it can be useful for a variety of clothing styles.
• Bralettes: If comfort and coverage are your top priorities, a lace bralette is a great option for your holiday dress. This bra style is designed like a camisole and is perfect when the cut of the dress is lower than you prefer. These lightly padded, wire-free bras are extremely comfortable, plus the lace looks pretty and sophisticated underneath a lower neckline. Just be sure to coordinate the color of the lace with your dress. If you have a lower-cut black dress, for example, stick with a black lace bralette.

So there you have it -- shopping for a great holiday dress and coordinating bra doesn't have to be stressful, as long as understand what to look for when selecting your lingerie. Follow these guidelines and you'll be on your way to looking and feeling your best this holiday season!

Feel Sexy With a Leather Bra

Do you go through your days feeling unsexy? Do you constantly find yourself wearing the same things and no matter how many variations you try, you just can't seem to find a wardrobe that seems daring or fun? Maybe you should try wearing a bra underneath your shirt, blouse or dress. A bra is stylish, fun and sexy and it can increase your self confidence as well. Nobody has to know that you have that bra on except you, and that's usually one of the most exciting things about it.

bras are some of the hottest items you can wear when it comes to sexy underwear. They are available in a variety of colors and styles to match the fashion sense of any naughty girl. Men love seeing women in sexy undergarments. This is especially true when the lingerie is made of soft breathable leather. If you want to turn the head of any man in the room you can wear this type of lingerie and get the results you seek when it comes to sexual playtime. You can choose a bra that matches or compliments your other favorite sexy lingerie.

No matter where you are, at the grocery store, in a business meeting or at your children's sporting events, you'll begin to feel free and unpredictable. This is especially true for those women who are used to dressing conservatively. Take a bank manager, for instance. Wearing suits all day looks professional and may look great, but it doesn't exactly make a woman feel sexy. Now if that bank manager were to wear a bra underneath her suit, she'd be able to exude a level of confidence and sexiness she probably hasn't felt in quite some time.

A bra is recommended for anyone who is looking for some fun and excitement in her life without having to resort to extremes. All it takes is finding the right sized bra and no matter what you wear you will always feel self assured and your sex appeal will likely sky rocket.

So the next time you're shopping for bras, and you want one that will have an effect on you the way no other bra will, get a bra and finally bring that sexiness back into your life with one simple wardrobe change. Who knows, after wearing a bra one time you may throw out all your old bras to exchange for brand new leather ones.

Among the many emerging fashion trends today Underwear Reviews offers rising popularity of dresses. You'll find clothes like leather bra [http://www.leatherunderwearreviews.com/], skirts in pretty much every conceivable design at online retailers.

Plus Size Open Bra Styles

Many women think that plus size open bra is a misnomer: they can't believe that a buxom woman can get away with wearing an open bra and have it look sexy, rather than ridiculous. Thankfully, women who wear extended sizes are no longer limited to frumpy, industrial-strength lingerie and "granny panties." These types of bras require a good bit of courage to pull off at first; however, this exotic lingerie may quickly become one of your favorites!

It's important to understand that there are many different types of bras; one size does not fit all, literally or figuratively. Many women with small bustlines enjoy wearing a completely open cup bra, which is basically an underwire bra without any cups. This can be a titillating look; however, this is not the most flattering kind of bra for most women who are more buxom. A more suitable plus size open bra is the "peekaboo" style, which is akin to a regular brassiere that has holes cut out for the nipples. This kind of bra leaves the nipples provocatively open to view, but gives the breasts much more support than skimpier bras. Women who enjoy having their nipples somewhat visible beneath everyday clothing frequently choose this bra as an option, since support is not compromised. Many women also enjoy the feeling of their shirt fabric as it moves across their nipples during the day. Depending on where you purchase these bras, they may be labeled open bras, shelf bras or open tip bras.

Another popular bra style is the sling bra. This brassiere provides adequate support for medium to large breasts. The cups usually have underwire at the base, and the lower half of the cup is present. The top edges are outlined with a triangle of material, but the center of the breast and the nipple are exposed. Sling bras are more modest than fully open cup bras, but less so than an open tip bra.

Another kind of brassiere is the drop cup bra; this bra can conveniently double as a nursing bra for moms who want to feel alluring after childbirth. These bras feature a "click and drop" technology that allows the wearer to quickly bare one or both breasts.

Keep your eyes peeled for open cup bra and panty sets. The combination of some variety of open bra with a pair of open panties can be highly erotic and enjoyable to wear. Bear in mind that open panties don't have to reveal all everything right away; some styles have lace-up crotches, or a series of snaps; others have two pieces of fabric in the crotch that can be opened, or left alone and worn just like "normal" underwear. If you're desperate and have no time to shop, consider carefully taking a pair of scissors to a pair of panties you already own. A simple vertical slit is all you need, although the more industrious may choose to completely remove the crotch panel of fabric. (Please do NOT do this while wearing the panties!)

The Hot Mom's Guide to Stretch Mark Treatment

Stretch marks. You know what they are: those squiggly lines that show up uninvited on your thighs, breasts, hips, and belly; they can be white or pink, but they're never pretty. And while over ninety percent of women who have babies will wind up with stretch marks-on their bellies, breasts, thighs, and hips-very few of them realize that there is a stretch marks treatment available that can reduce the appearance of these unsightly scars.

One promising new treatment on the market is a cream that increases your skin's elasticity by increasing your body's production of collagen, the stuff that keeps your skin supple and young-looking. Maybe you've heard of collagen's use in facial skincare; for a long time it has been ues to great effect in preventing and combating wrinkles. It does this by making your skin stretchy instead of brittle, allowing it to better accommodate the changing body it beneath it.

But it turns out that collagen's usefulness is not limited to facial skincare. A cream that increases collagen production is also remarkably effective as a stretch marks treatment; using a collagen-stimulating cream will drastically reduce the appearance of stretch marks after pregnancy. The best part is, if you use it before pregnancy or weight gain, a collagen-stimulating treatment can even prevent the occurrence of stretch marks by preparing the skin for your body's sudden expansion.

If you need to get rid of stretch marks, don't waste your money on snake-oil creams and lotions that are mere moisturizers. Don't jump into expensive and outmoded surgical treatments either. First do your research; skincare science has come a long way in a short time. Thanks to collagen, women who want to have babies are no longer doomed to live the rest of their lives without baring their midriffs. A cream that stimulates collagen production presents a reasonably priced, non-surgical alternative stretch marks treatment. And the best part is, it actually works!

Friends for the Hot Mom?

One of the biggest challenges of motherhood is how to remain the kind of hot mom that you used to be without turning your friends away - friends who are not yet moms, friends who are still single looking for a man to fit into their lives. Let's admit this, the moment we become moms, our lives become different and sometimes in the eyes of our friends, WE become different no matter how hard we try to remain the same. We could be doing the same kind of shopping and yakking and drinking the same kind of coffee after we've become mom, it's just not the same.

Why?

Well, hot mom, here's news for you

One of the biggest difference as a mom is that it's hard to remain hot when you've got jello-like extra skin hanging out in front of your belly at least for some months to come after the birth. When your friends are wearing hot outfits and extra sexy (midrift revealing) outfits, we get a little HOT under the collar because we can't wear the same clothes. In fact, this hot mom had to trade her smaller-than-small outfits for hubby's tracks and shirts for 3 months. It's hard to be a hot mom when you know you're wearing a man's outfit.

No matter how you try to be and act hot with that outfit, it's not COMPLETELY possible.

Hot mom and hot friends will grow apart for a while

After giving birth to your new baby, the first thing you will want to do is to bond with your new bundle of joy. This newborn baby will rule your waking hours and sleeping hours for some time. So, hot mom, here's news. You will not be hot with your friends for at least a couple of months.

After a couple of months, if they're really your friends, they'll stick around...that's for sure.

How to get back to being a hot mom

Getting back to your feet as a hot mom is not an overnight thing. You don't just force yourself to fit into your old clothes, act the way you used to act, go to places you used to go, and work the way you used to work without thinking about the new human being that you're now responsible for. It's different - but it's almost the same kind of hot-ness, if there aren't any other ways to say this.

First, understand and accept the fact that you're a mom. You're still hot but you're mom now.

Secondly, try your best to separate between time with your family and time with your friends. As much as your newborn needs you, you need you and your friends need you. they need the mom they used to know to be back in the clique with them. I am sure they are sad too that you're no longer the kind of hot mom that you used to be. And it will take very little effort on your part to bridge the differences.

Thirdly, a hot mom will know that friends are very important pillars of support. When times are down and you need a shoulder to cry on, you should have friends you can count on to answer your calls in the middle of the night. Your relationship and friendship with other hot moms is just as important but...the fact is, maintaining your friendship from pre-baby days is JUST AS IMPORTANT.

How to Be a Hot Mom?

The idea of being a hot mom may not suit many women as they are not ready to make some basic compromises. Being hot doesn't always mean freaking out of the house and getting showcased. The idea is most often misinterpreted. A hot mom is just another woman who is not only fabulously beautiful but is sensible in making an impact on the surrounding. She is the one who is sexy and intelligent.

The definition for a hot mom is for those who think that they can have a proper rejuvenation of their body, mind and soul. Being Hot is in itself the jump start. To be a hot mom you need to wear trendy clothes. You must do some exercises to have a great body. The curvier your body is, the more attractive you will look in trendy clothes.

To be one of the hot moms it is also very important to be selective of your clothes and accessories. Just picking up dresses and accessories from the mall will never make you look hot. You must spend some time in making little bit of research regarding your skin, complexion, body and your hair. After that you must have proper grooming and a combination of all these things. For a unique and absolutely stunning younger look you could consider Yoga and mild floor exercises on a regular basis. Meditation can be one of the best means to get rejuvenated.

You are now a new you! Automatically you will prefer new clothes and accessories to suit your mood. A proper consultation with a fashion expert is also of great help. It is also very important to be a responsible mother and follow a very well managed schedule. Dedicate yourself the same amount of time that you give to your child. Soon you will realise how hot and spicy you can be. You will be well rated as one of the hot moms in the community.

Hot Soccer Mom

It's always exciting to watch live football games and be treated to breathtaking moves as well as hot soccer mom. Everyone loves the contact sport. Children, teenagers, and adults are hooked to world class football. Even gender is not an issue when it comes to soccer as men and women crave for the sport. Women in particular are fascinated by the athletic looking individuals playing on the field and bringing out all the skills they have. Let's face it, these handsome players most of the time win the affection and attraction of the beautiful and charming girls. But the story does not end there.

Pretty and amiable mothers also love to watch thrilling matches. Most of the time, they go out with their little kids. At times they get so focused on the game and their kids that they do not notice the male fans staring at them. These mothers who hunger for soccer are hot items in the venue as they usually wear sexy and tight clothes. It's always a satisfying thing to see beautiful and attractive mothers during a soccer game.

The World Cup as well as the major football leagues throughout the world takes pride in its festive atmosphere and huge audience attendance. It is interesting to note that through the years the attendance of women in a match has considerably increased. This can be mainly attributed to the fact that women's football is already getting more popular than in the past years thus their interest in the sport has increased much. As a consequence, even young girls are already drawn to the game. They conquer the various game venues with their hot soccer mom.

Top 5 Gifts for Mom

There are many items that are purported to be the "perfect" gift for moms for any occasion, but not all moms are into the latest fashion or newest gadget on the market. Check out five ideas that stand the test of time and will bring a smile to your mom's face.

1. An electronic picture frame can be a wonderful gift for any mom. Moms who have jobs outside of the home sometimes have trouble keeping their desk pictures up-to-date, so it would be easy to bring the pictures in on the USB drive and upload a new set of pictures at work. At home, having a picture frame on the wall cycling through a year or two of pictures can make mom smile with the memories as she walks past the frame.

2. Before buying her an appliance that you're sure she'll love, make sure she'll really love it. "She's always vacuuming and sweeping," may be something you've noticed, but that doesn't mean she enjoys it. However, an appliance like a Roomba that vacuums the room itself may be a very welcome addition to her appliance "collection."

3. A Keurig Single-Cup Home Brewing System is a gift that can save mom money and time. While it is technically an appliance, it is an appliance that requires little to no work on mom's part. Even if your mom doesn't drink coffee, Keurig has tea and hot chocolate K-cups. It also has easy clean up. So, mom can enjoy her coffee, tea or hot chocolate without all the prep work or clean up.

4. Jewelry is a difficult item to buy for a person, unless you know exactly what that person likes. However, a mother's ring with her children's birthstones is usually a winning gift for any mom. If she has a mother's ring, you can buy her a lovely necklace with birth charms to match or earrings with her children's birthstones. If mom is not done having children, it is a good idea to get jewelry that can be added to later.

5. Sometimes, when kids grow up and move out, time with their children is what a mom cherishes most of all. Give her a wall calendar specifically made with at least one day marked as a day with you. If you have siblings, have them set days aside to just spend with Mom and add that to the calendar. Even a once-a-month or bi-monthly family dinner that is set on the calendar is a gift mom will appreciate. (Don't forget to help with the dishes afterward.)

The key to getting mom the perfect gift is to think of things she will truly like and will not cause her to work to enjoy it. It doesn't need to cost much, but some thought should be behind your choice.

It's Hot To Be A Mommy!

First we saw Madonna... Then came Cindy Crawford, followed by Heidi Klum, Britney Spears, Denise Richards and Angelina Jolie... The list goes on as it seems that every day a new mom pops into the scene... Halle Berry, Salma Hayek, Nicole Richie, Christina Aguilera...

Let's face it - being a mommy is hot!

Yes... There is a Baby Boom happening throughout Hollywood's celebrity scene, and without a doubt, that means each day we see more and more celebrity mommies flaunting their beautifully pregnant bellies, followed by then revealing their sexy, flawless post-baby figure... And then, in no time at all... They fully go back to work on their extremely successful careers.

Times have changed... Moms have changed... it's an outright Hot Mommy revolution!

Unlike women from two or more decades ago, today's mommies view pregnancy and motherhood as one more wonderful stage in their lives for which to show pride and confidence. Gone are the days in which pregnant women tried every single trick to "hide" their bellies, as if a pregnant woman's changing body was a reason of shame - a way of declaring to the rest of the world that her life was officially "over."

Perhaps it was Demi Moore's Vanity Fair cover in August 1991 what triggered the beginning of this change in the perception of pregnancy and motherhood. Before then, no Hollywood celebrity or beauty icon would even dream of displaying to the public a less-than-perfect waistline, much less a protruding 8-month pregnant belly.

It took many decades, one controversial magazine cover and an endless number of declarations by many, now proud mommies, celebrity beauty icons, to finally make us realize that pregnancy is not a condition to be ashamed of, to hide and, much less, to mark the end of a woman's beauty and professional career.

Today's moms feel the need to show to the world that they are still beautiful and that their personal and professional lives are far from over. They take care of their health and their physical appearance, at the same time that they balance their work and family lives. Modern moms are not only strong and practical, they are also fun, beautiful, sensual and intelligent. Today's mommies celebrate not only their personal and professional accomplishments - they also celebrate the miracle of life and the process that it implicates.

Today's moms deserve to be acknowledged as Hot Mommies, and this is simply a true revolution, a moment in history in which society's way of thinking is changing... For the better!
