I had initial problems getting the cups to stay on but as long as I use a fair amount of lotion I just moisturize up, massage a little and place the cups over my breasts. I pump until they stay up on their own (I start sitting up) and ease myself to a laying position. I noogle for an hour at least nightly (except tonight, I have a paper due tomorrow that took over noogling time) and on days I have a late class I try putting in 20 minutes or so. Weekends when I'm lounging I pop in a movie and noogle the whole time so it really just depends.
I have a pretty high self-inflicted pain tolerance and once I got the hang of it I'd categorize it as uncomfortable at worst, not really painful. The very noteable exception is when the cups sometimes slide towards the armpits and put major pressure on that muscle that connects from the shoulder to the torso. That hurts like no other and is not necessary for good results.
I do get the red rings but really don't mind them since I usually pump before bed and have 8ish hours to get rid of them. If I pump in the morning I just wear a high collared shirt.
I cracked my mediums, like I said because I didn't realize I'd filled them. In my head 'filling' is literally all my boob pressed against the side of the cup- not so it turns out. I probably should have ordered larger ones when my nipple was above the highest mark on the cups (2 1/2" for the mediums) Now my right nipple touches the side- which feels really strange- and my left almost touches and I get to a point where the pump doesn't want to pump any more air out.
If I missed something be sure and let me know, I'm an open book
