Hey Girls, Just started the program. First night was horrible, second night removed the domes at 3:00 am, last night was much better. I can't seem to get the domes in exactly the right position. I usually get into the "gear" at 10:00 or so and by 3:00 am I wake up with pain under either the left or right armpit. Thank goodness not both at the same time. I did notice that I had one of the domes significantly lower than the other and the lower one was the the more comfortable.
I am a small B and am very happy with the swelling obtained after only 9 hours of wear for two nights. I am getting great swelling although I can't even begin to imagine filling out the wide-large domes. Brava says I will, but we'll see. It seems the swelling is lasting most of the day even though the website says it will go down in 3-4 hours. So, I'm thinking this is a good sign in terms of my responsiveness. I work long hours and it will be difficult for me to ever log more than 10 hours at a time. Maybe I'll be a quick responder!
So far, I am extremely pleased. Any tips for more comfort in the armpit area will be appreciated. Good luck to all.

... it happent to me too. for me it was all about position. if it hurts after a few hours i take them off and reposition them. even 1 cm can do a lot. don't use extra suction. u'll hurt the tissues where the plastic part of the domes presses and it's unhealthy for the breast. try not to give up on the 10 hours. like i said if it hurts or it gets itchy, take them off, clean ur skin and place them back a bit diferently. good luck

Try losening the straps on the bra another thing is go to any decent department store and get a sport bra in your band size and dd cup. the racerback zip front one works very well for me from jc penny. the brava one gives me a very bad rash under the back side of both of my underarms. good luck

i don't wear it during the day. i feel much better with the domes only. but the sports bra seems a good ideea. the brava bra makes me itchy and i have to wear something at night not to kick them off and it wakes me up at times. i'll try the sports bra too
