I have rings marks from the rims of the cups. They're not permanent per se, but they definitely won't heal while I'm still noogling. The results have been so good though, I don't want to stop! I'm planning on going a size larger than my goal and then let myself heal up, hopefully ending up with the size I actually wanted.

The water comes out of the back of the hand pump. I don't think it ruins anything, since the whole system is just plastic. I've been doing it for months and it still works fine both ways.

Have you checked out the forum yet? There are a ton of before and after pictures and much more info on the system.

Hey BustyBabe, No I have not checked out the forum yet. Back when I was first looking at these websites I felt a little overwhelmed by the NB forum so I decided to stick to this one, but now I might give it a try.

Do you just fill the cups with water, or do you do this while you submerge your breasts totally in water in say like a bath? I guess I was a little paranoid about how the water might effect the gauge...

Well I am sure once you reach a cup past your goal that the ring marks will heal up

Your exactly right. You can certainly work your way into stronger suction, just give your breast some time to get use to it. It shouldnt be painful, you can damage your breast and skin that way.

I use to do really strong suction and I could reach the end of my medium cups. I stopped doing that after I felt like it was stretching my skin to much and it wasn't seeing any growth. Now I only pump until my breast are a little over half way in the cups. This works just fine for me, the red rings I get from noogling usually go away in about 30 to an hour.

Ok, I am back up to -3 inHg again so the suction is a *little* better and I only on rare occasion get broken capillaries, and they are extremely few. I assume it should only get better from here, although I have a few capillaries from the beginning that are pretty stubborn about healing. I hope that they will eventually go away, because they make my breasts look blemished

Now I just made your Noogle Bra two nights ago out of a sports bra. It helps a little, at least I think it does! Although I STILL lose suction at least 1-2 times per hour session . I found that my lotion helped a little with the suction, but also seemed to work against it as my cups would slide around a bit on my chest, increasing the opportunity to find a chest cavity and get seeps of air pockets! Is there any kind of lotion or oil that may be "stickier" that you might be able to recommend (before I spend half a hundred dollars on lotions and oils)?

Thanks a million!
