Brava dome suction

need suggestions on dome placement

I've been using the brava narrow-large domes with the airlock attachment for 3 days, but I have a problem maintaining the suction. What have you found is the best way for putting the domes on correctly? Because I bought the domes (brand new) off of ebay, I don't have an instruction manual.

I went out and bought an ace bandage, and am going to try wrapping that tightly around the domes underneath my bra, and see if that helps. If anybody else has any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi there, I always use an alcohol based antiseptic wipe on my skin first then let this dry and place the dome on from the bottom of my breast upwards. Try washing the domes every day after use , I use a natural honey soap which is very gentle to remove any skin residue and it seems to be working . I'm 3 weeks in now and only loose suction if I move sideways at night or lean forward.
Like you I bought new from Brava on Ebay direct and there were limited instructions, you don't mention if you have the Brava bra ?? I zip mine up at the front a little then suck the air out before connecting to my smart box, I figure this keeps my pump in better order as its not working for so long. My box goes off at least twice a night but the problem with the manual system is you have no way of knowing if you have lost suction, I think you really just have to lie very still with cushions on either side of you to stop you rolling over. Hope this is helpful, its worth the effort I've gone up at least 1/2 size already and I'm almost back to how I was before I breast fed so keep at it .....its a MAJOR CONFIDENCE BOASTER !!!
