So, I will try to explain. First of all a lot depends on the domes. I have new contoured domes, they are Ls. Really glad that I went for them and not the regular ones. So basically what happens is that there's not enough room on my chest for both of them to sit "correctly". When I use one at a time I don't move it to the center intentionally, I just put it on so that the center of the dome (where the tube is attached) is positioned exactly where the nipple is (vertically). When I do it I see that the edge of the dome is also covering a little bit of the area further than a center of my chest. I think that this was what did the trick with getting some meat on right there. If you put both domes on at the same time their edges will be touching each other leaving much more area uncovered. Hope I managed to explain
Hi Ginie,
I just got my NB and I am so excited!!!
I tried doing what you did, placing the dome to postition exactly where the nipple is, but the edge of the dome does not reach the center of my chest
I think I should have ordered the large, I ordered the medium. I am pretty sure that the large would have been perfect for what you did about the center of the chest. Lesson learned. Or maybe I have a wider chest, I don't know. I guess I will use the M's for a while and then I will buy the L's.I was able to place both domes at the same time. I first used a lotion and the domes would not stay on! So I did what you suggested, I used oil, olive oil, to be exact and it was perfect! I noogled for 30 minutes earlier. I am noogling again right now as I type, hopefully I will do an hour this time.
