Hey Jen, and congratulations on your Brava =)

1 and 3. I did not use any brava skin care kit. I just put the brava roll on, which is the same as the prep wipes, on clean skin before putting the domes on. You have to wait a little while before putting the domes on, letting the thing (can't think of an english word) dry on your skin first. Hygene is very important to prevent rashes and try not to sweat much as you sleep

2. You do NOT put any cream or lotion on your breasts before pumping because it is damaging for the domes. You can use some after if you want, but I never did.

4. I hardly saw any swelling the first nights. It builds up gradually. The swelling is much less then on Noogleberry but after about 6 weeks your breasts will be swollen all day and look so nice =) So less swelling that after some time stays much longer then the noogleberry swelling.

5. Turn on the alarm. If the smart box stops working the alarm should go off. If the smartbox doesn't work, you will not get any swelling

6. I just washed my domes with water. I don't sweat during the night so I didn't use any form of soap. I have very sensitive skin so I rinsed it well in warm water.

I think this is everything. The first night will be horrible but it will get better. Never forget that.
Good luck
Rosie

Hi Rosie,
I'm very appreciated for your reply and congratulation on your growth, thanks a lot for sharing the experience

2. I tried just put the domes on without any cream supported, but I feel it kind of hard on the skin. I read some where that some one can use the spray/serum or cream for the suction (during pumping), but I'm not sure if they cause the domes damaged...

5. For the alarm on smartbox: I don't see any light indicated that the alarm is on or off, so when I press the power button, I can hear the noise, and then I press the alarm, but I don;t know it is on or off, I don't see any green light or any signal to let me know it is on or off. How do you know?

Thanks for your input,
Best rgds,
Jen
