Checking your breasts yourself
A post we called "inspecting your domain" among ourselves. Important, and you can do it without leaving home.
Stand in front of a mirror, hands on your hips, and straighten your shoulders
Raise your arms above your head. Notice how your breasts have changed: in shape, size and colour
Feel your left breast with your right hand, and your right breast with your left hand, checking for thickening and lumps
Make sure you have felt your whole breast using small circular movements
