anyway, i did 7:2 three times as that is all the time i had for tonight (it took way longer than 27 minutes though with all the trials!) and i didn't swell at all. i measured myself too to confirm and no swelling. i am the same measurement as i was when i first started NBE, though i am just starting out. i hope this changes after a few months! will keep at it.
I have to sit mine high for them to get a seal. I'd love to grow the bottoms more but I can't seem to get suction when I put them lower. You may also want to try clipping off one of the tubes (some girls have luck with alligator clips if you don't have an airlock) and using one dome at a time. That's how I had to progress to the L's. I also would pre-pump with the M's and then use the L's. You may want to do the same with the S's. I'm unsure about the contoured cups. I ordered the CLs before the Ls and they are absolutely huge! I still wonder if they sent me the CXLs so I can't tell you if they are easier to use or not.
