After reading and reading about everyone else's success stories, I deecided to take the plunge and give it a shot.  I got my Bosom Beauty 2012 yesterday and jumped right in.  I'm starting slow so to reduce the chance that I overpump.  Yesterday I did 10 min with the medium cushioned cups on level 3 right after recieving it at lunch (you know... to make sure it all worked.   ).  No issues and rings went away within 15 min.  So before bed, I decided to see how I did with a longer timer.  I went 15 minutes this time at level 3 and went to bed.  I did find it difficult to keep suction when I laid down, so I have a feeling that it's all going to be done at the desk sitting up before bed.  

I got a good 8 hours of sleep last night.  This morning I felt a little heavy, and that was unexpected so soon after starting.  After my morning cup of coffee, I jumped on the machine to try and get my routine started.  Again at level 3, and sitting at the desk I did 20 minutes and they were swelling pretty good.  Rings were gone after about a half hour of stopping.  I think, with the quick recovery from pumping and what I read from others, that level 3 is probably a good place to start for the first couple months.

My current plan is pretty simple:

   6 am and 8pm daily pumping on level 3 for the manufacturer's recommended 30 minute sessions.
   Aloe Vera massage 10 min prior to pumping sessions.
   2000 mg MSM suppliment

** I stay pretty hydrated, so I won't really track fluid intake.

I started a quick journal to keep track of times, levels, fill volume, cup mark dissapation, and pre-pump bust size.  I'm pretty excited to start this journey, and welcome input as this progresses.  Unfortunately I don't want to play with my hormone levels.  With my history, that may be inviting trouble.

Heyy Victoria 

Welcome to the forum!

This sounds like a good plan. You have got most things sorted there and have a good idea about nbe. You could also try adding massages in your routine. I hate it but I still do it, it is very beneficial.

Hope you get your DD's in time. 

Cheers
