Started my period a couple days ago (March 14) and took a break all day from the herbs and massages.
Also, I FINALLY found some Hops yesterday and took my first one last night, which was day 2 of month 3.
I had a lot of pain and swelling for the last 2 weeks before my period, and they were the biggest they hae ever been. Now that my period is here they seem to have gone down a bit, but still noticeably bigger than before starting NBE.
That's all the news....
My pains are gone and my glorious bouncing luteal boobies seemed to have shrunk back down again to what they were at the beginning of last month
After consulting with the wonderful ladies on the forum it seems that I am taking too much stuff, I have decided to change my routine a bit. I will ramp down the FG, lose the hops, and add an SP. I'm going to do this over a few days, so my "ramp down" routine will go something like this:
Today: Drop one FG dose and the hops
Tomorrow: Drop another FG dose and maintain at this dosage
Next Day: Drop one Red Clover and maintain
Day after that: Add one more SP
So my routine will then look like this:
FG = 2440mg/day (610mgX4)
SP = 2000mg/day (500mgX4)
RC = 1000mg/day (500mgX2)
Borage Oil = 500mg/day (500mgX1)
Massage nightly with new boobie batter, which is a cocoa butter base with Fenugreek

Day 8: Dropped one FG dose at night and the hops
Day 9: Dropped another FG dose in the morning and dropped a Red Clover dose at night, and added another SP
Day 10 (today): Will maintain
So now this is my current routine, which I will maintain for now because my boobies are really aching today and feel heavy again (yippee!):
FG = 2440mg/day (610mgX4 - 1 in the morning, 2 in the aft, 1 at bedtime)
SP = 2000mg/day (500mgX4 - 1 in the morning, 1 in the aft, 2 at bedtime)
RC = 1000mg/day (500mgX2 - 1 in the monring, 1 in the aft)
Borage Oil = 500mg/day (500mgX1 at bedtime)
Massage nightly with new boobie batter, which is a cocoa butter base, decided not to add any herbs to it for now because it smells SO yummy I don't want to mess with it!!

33 yr old female/5ft 3in/105lbs/0 kids
My starting measurments were: 32 accross fullest bust/28 under bust/25 waist/34 hip.
I began herbs on January 20,2006. This is my first attempt at NBE.
I don't smoke, excercise at least twice per week at the gym weight training and pilates. I walk 30 minutes to and from work combined per day.
I eat okay, drink lots of water, but I do drink one cup of coffee in the morning per day.
Im' currently an A cup and my goal is a B cup.
After being on herbs for about 4 weeks I gained one half inch and went from 32 accross to 32.5 accross.
All other body measurments stayed the same.

Day 8: Dropped one FG dose at night and the hops
