Hi Everyone,
I finally received my BO last night!!! I'm so excited to start a new routine for the new year. This is what my routine looks like.
morning:
2 Vitex 80mg extract (been taking this for 5 weeks)
1 ginko biloba 30mg (been taking this for 5 weeks)
1 collagen type II
mid morning:
1 d&e BO 500mg
whey protein shake
afternoon:
1 Royal Jelly
1 ginko biloba
evening:
1 Vitex 80mg extract
1 ginko biloba
1 BO 500mg
whey protein shake
I massage with emu oil and then shea body butter. I haven't received my breast pump yet.
Please let me know what you think. I will add another BO after a couple of days/week.
Wish me luck!!! Holly

that may not be enough bo, but it is good that you are starting with lower doses... you might want to maybe start just a little higher though? vitamin power used to recommend starting at 1800 and increasing from there... though bb has only 1050, so you might be able to get more for less!
sounds good though... give it a shot and keep us posted!!

I was thinking about possibly adding one more bo to make it 1500mg?

Glad you finally got your stash!
Emmie's right that bb's mg are pretty low and people still get results on that like I did in the beginning, so you could try that amount (1000) for a couple of weeks and see if you get any sensations or anything, then ramp up to 1500...you know just in case your body responds better to a lower dosage, that way you're not taking more pills than needed also. Just a thought though. Good luck and keep us posted. The rest of your routine looks pretty good also. Hope you get your pump soon...I'm still pumping away everyday and it's been 3wks so far, so hoping for some kind of growing soon on my smaller side.
Breast wishes and blessings everyone!!

Thanks Emmie and Michelle,
I think I will stick with the 1000mg bo for at least a week. The collagen is also new for me so maybe it's best to start slow & low!! I really want to get this right this time and I tend to get very impatient. It's hard when you hear others having lots of pains and growth...makes you want them too!!
Michelle, Do you think your pump is helping? Does it leave red marks?
Emmie, have you tried the lemonade cleanse yet? I always have bad bloating and was thinking about trying it. I took a one month cleanse and it felt so good.

I'm so excited for you Holly! I hope you have good results. Not everyone have pains while doing NBE. When I tried herbs, I had lots of soreness and pain but I didn't retain much growth. I think sometimes it's just water retention and pms syptoms/estrogen dominant. Now that I've cut way back/out on estrogenic herbs that I was taking with the BO like kelp, YM, and SP, I don't feel as much tingling/soreness but I'm still growing. It's more slow and steady instead of swelling and then lose the swelling thing. I want to grow more but I don't necessarily like to feel sore if I can grow without it. I take 1 YM and 1 SP per day on days that I feel I need a little more estrogen for balance.
Good luck and happy BE

sticking with the low dose for a bit might do the trick for you... and you will be able to take the lowest possible dose, which is always good. a week (maybe two) at the 1000 should be good... you can always ramp up. going back down is much harder!
i havent done the lemonade yet... i forgot maple syrup last time i went shopping, and the store had no cayenne anyway so i had to order it online (our military commissary has a rather limited selection... they also had, for instance, no chicken for the past two weeks). im going to try it though because i really liked how i felt on the colonix...
good luck to you! let us know how its going!!

Thank you wonderbride!! I wouldn't mind not getting pains and soar if I knew I was growing!! I'm hoping I do feel something at least in the beginning so I'll know if something is happening. I might add sp or nettle in a month. I've tried wy before and it didn't seem to do much for me. I'm glad you are doing well on your program! I love your quote, I tell myself that all the time!
Emmie - I just made my first batch of the lemonade. I'm so bloated that I need to try something. I was reading the site that says you should drink it all day...do you think it will effect our intake of pills? Will they still get obsorbed? I don't want them to get flushed out!!

a lemonade person correct me if i am wrong, but i think you drink it all day when you are trying to use it as the diet... to just keep off the bloating you should be good with once a day (like in the evening or something?)
i might be wrong...

That's what I was wondering. I'm just drinking a 16 oz bottle for now to see how that goes. Doesn't taste bad but I think I got carried away witht the cayenne.
