update: skin suffering... rash and itching and red and bad.... i had to take three days off but not cause of the rash but cause i had to go away and share accomodation with zero privacy
ive ordered a another brava set off a member on here with domes in much better condition and i hope these domes are kinder to my skin. im thinking that probably torn rims let in more bacteria and also heavy piling is more irritating to the skin then a smoother surface.
well it looks like im adding more and more time to my program missing all these days!! you know i can see it might be a good choice for someone just to invest in a new brava and save themselves the trouble of finding new bits like larger domes when needed, instead of having to break the program and add so much more time. i find brava fine and fairly easy to wear, like ive said but the skin irritation is appauling to me... maybe i should try that cream others have suggested.. noone sells in it in australia though and its expensive when shipping is taken into account. might need to get it though, seeing others have said its the only thing thats worked.
ive been using aloe vera and paw paw ointment, also sorbelene cream. i think it helps a little but not majorly. im sure cortisone cream would work wonders as ive heard others say, but cortisone is a dangerous chemical to your health and affects your immune system in ways noone yet understands is what i hear.
well anyways, im selling these domes on ebay, and being clear in my listing that they have some damage.. the ebay seller i bought them off ended up giving me a 200 refund on them, but wouldnt accept a return, whch is better than nothing i guess. i paid 500 for them including postage, and yeah i doubt ill resell them for 300 to get back what i paid! I started an auction for them at 180. so if any one wants some large wide domes check them out. they do still hold a seal perfectly and without fail, but maybe you should only consider them if your skin isnt super sensitive like mine is.
ive decided im gonna keep all my spare parts including sport box, as ill have two of everything, besides domes, when i receive this new set...after seeing how hard it is to get second hand brava bits!!! dont wanna have to break my program again if any parts fail.
as for my actual progress, well im holding at 33.5 at the end of the day. actually i was holding at that even after my recent three day break. strange isnt it. i started at 32.5... my breasts ar definietly fuller and whether it a real change that will last or swelling- either is good, cause its maintaining all the time, and if its not growth yet, well its good to have lasting swelling as that leads to growth. i have no new stretch marks at all, and thats after more than 7 weeks of use here. thats a good sign nd makes me feel its probably true that lighter pressure over longer time periods is safer for stretchmarks than higher pressure for shorter periods, but you would assume it was that was i guess. my nipples dont seem to be growing ether- and with noogleberry i noticed nipple growth after just a week even!! my nipples look good actally, they are pinker, and their shape seems somehow more likeable to me. if it wasnt for this dam rash id be enjoying me 'new' chest alot right now
yeah bummer ended up being 5 nights in total off brava, and it was going so well!! at leAst my skin got a chance to heal properly i guess.... well i measured today and actually im still up in measuremnts, im at 33 inches (started at 32.5)- and im not pre menstral or anything, im at luteal phase so its not just pre menstral swelling... and like i said my shape is fuller- so whether thats swelling that was still lasting or an actual growth who knows- probably swelling lasting through the 4 days i guess most likely- so i would think the months wear wasnt totally wasted if im starting up again while some swelling is still about... ill let you know how my swelling goes in the morning!!
