day 22 of my cycle, 7th week into brava, my breasts measured at almost 32.5" before putting the domes back on at night. so seems like I'm retaining almost half an inch after 13hrs of nonwear. I'm curious to see if they will remain this way at the beginning of my next cycle.

I found a bunch of left over greenbush bust tea so I've been drinking 2 of those a day along with spearmint tea. it's been 4 days under this new regimine and my swelling has been spectacular and lasting longer and I've been getting breast pinching feeling all day. it's too early to tell if it's the tea or my cycle thats giving me better swelling. I will continue into next cycle and judge from there. I also purchased goats rue tea on eBay and will start drinking that once it arrives. interesting luisa, how we both responded similarly with goats rue... Seems like the effect might be short lived... I will report back my experience with the tea. Thanks for the tip luisa.

mesusuanna, I don't know if swimming is having a negative effect on your brava progress. I do vigorous exercises 3-4 times a week. so I am in similar situation. I am not willing to give up working out and just lock myself at home with brava. I would get too depressed! instead, I would do my exercise in the morning after taking off brava. an hour of weights and cardio does make the swelling die down pretty fast. But I try to stay as hydrated as I can, and do a 30 mins of noogling after my work out to get some of the swelling back. I'm so used to the swelling from brava now... The swelling from noogling is so much smaller in comparison... and it covers less area of the chest. Well good luck with your journey and I hope sucking out the air manually help you in some way.
