hi everyone, long time no see!! i had issues with second hand domes i bought way back in august september last year, and then an unfortunate incident of a second hand set i ordered not arriving at all!!! (talk about bad luck, lucky i was refunded). but i finally did get back on the brava wagon in october... the only problem is, i havent been able to be consistant. ive had a few long breaks here and there. in december i took almost 7 days off (i was in a dorm) and also the past couple of months ive had to take 3-5 days breaks a few times (my new boyfriend staying with me long periods) so ive been using brava 7 months now almost, but ive had quite a few periods in that time where i had to take a decent amount of time off it!! My swelling did decrease alot, and ive found it harder to maintain consistant results with my swelling. especially since the last couple of months, my session times are gerenally quite short.. i wonder if the fact im doing it this way makes it completely useless?? have i seen growth?? its really hard to tell at this point. i been so busy, i havent really been checking. i just try and get the system on as much as i can, but i do wonder if doing it this way is just a waste of time or if ill get results, but just alot slower?? well the past 4 days ive had sessions of 12 hours and up, and my swelling is big again- like bigger then ever actually. i took a two day break before this (boyfriend again) but the previous 10 days i was wearing brava every night, but averaging more like 11 hours a night... in a couple of days ill have to break my brava program again- dorm room situation again... what do you guys think, am i wasting my time?? i do often do extra suction pumping now that my wear time is irregular (i suck the air out of the tubes) but wow has it aged the domes, and yep nips definitely getting stetched too. but i figure maybe doing those extra suction pumps might not make my irregular brava journey completely useless (cause you hear about noogle wearers having high pressure sessions a few times a week and getting result...) anyways appreciate your advice
I wanted to add, about results, well after my long break s wen all the swelling was down, my breasts looked pretty much like my starting point I think, but possibly a little fuller. I didn't keep pics so its hard to know. Measurement s were about the same as start. Maybe a cm bigger, but I have always fluctuated 1-3 cms throughout the month, and my cycle has been major hay wire past few montgs (went on pikl for two weeks but then stopped, had 8 weeks following that of having a period fortnight ly!!!)
Hi universallove!!
we started brava about the same time, I thought you gave up! Nice to hear from you again.
Well I would expect that you get results even when you have breaks every now and then, but if you say in 7 months you don't have a measurable growth, then I would say it is not working, change the routine. Many NB users report growth only from using it a few hours and not even every day a week, which is very contradictory to brava theory, even on NB page, Lucy said too, NB doesn't promise permanent results, but many people say they have them. Anyway back to brava, obviously it doesn't work that way. I have also been using brava for 7months, every single night and I have gained about 8cm and I started out smaller then you, as far as I remember. I just wonder what will happen, once I have to make a break for 5 days..that will happen in april..
I would say doing it further in the same way doesn't seem to work, I would expect it to give at least couple of cm even if you skip nights, but as you reported it doesn't. So either invest couple of months or wait till you have time for it, I think.
I don't think your wasting your time or should give up.... its just going to take a lot longer getting to your goal.... the more you use it the quicker to your goal... personally sounds like you should ditch the boyfriend and work on your breasts! lol
o karren your toooo funny. i AM NOT ditching the boyfriend for breasts though. after years of singledom and no sex- like ever- there is no way im ditching him just to keep to my program. lol!!! Maybe one day ill tell him about brava, and can use it around him (definately not now though, we are kinda new together, and well, it seems to intimate a detail to disclose!). i have a feeling your right though karren, dont know why... i feel like even doing it this way will still give benefits somehow... well i didnt have to take that forecasted break after all so ive only had two nights off the past 19 days (just added it up then) and i wont need to take another break again for another 4 days (boyfriend over again- but this time, 2 nights only!). not toooo bad I guess?? so far.... we arent gonna be spending long periods together anymore for a while now anyways- cause he has started studying, so probably its gonna be a max of two nights off a week if that. probably often just one. hmmm wonder how that will fair.. im holding onto swelling really well lately and that feels like a good sign to me. besides i love being larger and firmer all day from swelling, it just makes me wanna use the system as much as possible. good incentive!! and i dont find it torturous as ive said. im so used to it now. anyways. gotta go put it on now!
so just to let you know how its all going... well its been a month or so, maybe 6 weeks, where i started being more regular with my brava wear... for the past few months before this I was having breaks of 3-5 days every couple of weeks or so, and not maintaining much swelling at all!!! doesnt seem the way to go. But in the last 4-6 weeks, i been having a maximum of two nights off a week, some weeks no nights off at all, and at present, im maintaining a good amount of swellling. I just got back from two nights with my boyfriend, 48 hrs or more of no brava. I measured before i put the system on tonight and Im above 85cm (usually with no swelling im about 83). Ive also maintained fullness and roundness the whole weekend of my non wear. I think this is a good sign... I think if i can keep this up- as in a max of two nights off a week i could still make good progress- because brava claims to work on your maintainence of swelling between sessions, as this is built on.
new swelling record today after a 14 hour session.... 92 cm (my starting size is 83 cm- but im maintaining at 85cm now at the end of the day) wow. thats a 32E. kinda crazy!! my previous record was 90 cm- and id only get that from 12 + hours as well (usually sessions of about 14 hours as this one was)... the fact that im reaching record swelling now tells me probably my time hasnt been entirely wasted. if only i could do 14 hour sessions daily for a few months. no doubt id get permanent results!!
