Your Bod

Fact or fiction: Butter makes your breasts grow

I’m only eight and my boobs are really small. My mom almost bought me a bra, but then said she’d wait until they were bigger. I want them to grow now! Will rubbing butter on them work?

I hate to break it to ya, babe, but rubbing butter on your boobs will only make them seriously greasy. Save the Land O’Lakes for a batch of brownies and let your body grow at its own pace. I know it’s frustrating to see your friends and peers developing faster than you, but there’s nothing you can do to speed up puberty. You’ve simply gotta suck it up and wait for your bod to change. Don’t worry! It’ll come soon enough.
