Hi everyone,
I've been looking for a product that would increase swelling while pumping. I usually have to pump for over 3 hours to get swelling but by the time I wait for the red marks from the cups to go away the swelling is already gone.
I ordered an Aloe Vera gel that has L-Arginine as one of the ingredients. L-Arginine is suppose to increase blood flow to the area which would increase swelling. It didn't work and I think it's because the Aloe vera reversed the effects of it.
I came up with a new idea...I could get L-Arginine capsules and break the capsules and rub them into my skin but I'm not sure if this is safe or not? Does anyone know or has already tried this?
Please let me know. Thank you so much
Oh and also, does anyone have a good trick to cover nipples while pumping so that the nipple size doesn't increase? I tried tape and band aids but they keep falling off. Any ideas?
Thank you
