No, I currently have the time. I think that's a part of the reason it felt like a good time to take the plunge with pumping now. Maybe I'll actually be in shape and have breasts by the time I can actually see people again lol. Like a lot of other people my life is in a weird limbo because of Covid19. I've barely left the house in months except for the times I have to.
Are you taking any hormones? That's great that your cycle was a bit longer. If it makes you feel better about the buffet I was good all last week and then on Saturday and Sunday ate terribly. I've been good again as of yesterday though.
Yeah, I feel like it's one of those things that someone had to have done a combined method, I just haven't yet seen a thread about it because I'd love to see their results. I feel optimistic that this is the best method for me. I finally got good swelling AND no overpumping marks. Whereas before it's like I had to choose whether I wanted swelling or whether I wanted to not have overpumping marks. I even had swelling that was a bit better than the time I got to -2. I tried just pump/hold last night because I wanted to make sure it was really my combined method that was giving me the swelling and it was because the swelling wasn't as great with just the pump/hold, so it looks like this is just the best method for me. I can't get to the magical -5 that people have mentioned but I'm not going to worry about it since people who don't even have the gauge have grown. I imagine if it's enough pressure to get swelling it should be enough to get growth. Now that I finally have swelling and I'm not overpumping it's now just the long wait to see if it turns into actual growth. I'm actually getting the feeling based off the swelling that when growth does happen it's going to wider first.
I think I might have actually had a tiny tiny amount of swelling left over from yesterday this morning. Normally by the morning the swelling from the previous day is gone. I really need to start taking pictures and structured measurements instead of just relying on my eyes. Maybe I'll do it on Saturday since it's the first of the month so I can do that on the first of every month.
Let me know how it goes if you try it. I think the reason the combined method works so well is because it gives you a better initial swelling that is easier to build upon or maintain when you do pump/hold.
