It's definately better to be safe than sorry. I will write to Lucy and ask around over at NB forum. I was pretty sure it was everybody's reaction - skin turning pink or light purple which fades away as soon as you take the domes off. I take it really slow (gentle) with pumping. In the beginning I was just new to it and was afraid of any damage. After a month or so when I saw results from it I was VERY tempted to do it longer or little harder but I can't afford any marks which won't fade away within minutes because I keep it secret from my husband. So if I did get red dots or indents or discoloration which would last until the evening (I pump around lunch time and he gets home in the evening) that would raise some questions!
At the moment I continue half an hour on each breast. I can't manage to keep both domes on so, I use one at the time. I know it's better to pump in the evening (body tends to retain fluid in the evening and get rid of in in the morning) but unfortunately this is not an option for me. Will let you know once I get the answer from Lucy.
