I had no idea how often I bump into things with my nips. Apparently my proprioception is lacking in the chest area.

That is all.

    Yep, that was my experience too. As they became sensitive, I’ve hurt myself quite a few times.

    Even more than that, somehow I feel like I’m a bit clumsier in general.

      Changes in muscle mass, body fat, new weight added to your chest, and slight shifts in your center of gravity will do that.

      The gender dysphoria bible has a bit where they say balance and coordination generally get better on HRT. Always bugged me because that seems to be the opposite experience for most people.

        That makes sense

        I tend to drop stuff more easily. Most likely because my grip is changing too.

        But yeah being clumsy may not be the proper way to convey it.

        Most likely the physical changes are faster than the change in muscle memory and the spatial perception of my silhouette.

        It became better for me after ~2 months-3 months

        Sensitive still, not as “painful” but let’s say there are some “good feelings” there too now.

    It is somewhat shocking just how there they are. Mine are maybe a B cup and only a cm or two farther forward than the before times and I brush them with my arm constantly. Picking up large appliances for work sucks because the straps I use go across both boobs and sqush the shit out of them 😵‍💫

    Yess, this is currently the bane of my existence.

    But I do like it, it reminds me I’m growing boobs.
