Awesome Cushioning Tip!

[Mumma Bear]

This is gold.... 

I've just discovered that Blu-tack makes the perfect cushioning device! After working fine for ages, my foam rings suddenly started letting lots of air through (the only thing I can pin it down to is changing from oil to cream for the lube maybe).

Anyhoo, in desperation I had a little brainwave and used strips of Blutack all around the edge - extra thick on the side that meets your armpit. I used 3 strips in total for the large size cup (one).

IT WORKS LIKE A DREAM!!!!!

Suction is 100%, comfort is firm but miles better than just the bare cups and because it has its own sticking power it means zero noogle farts and you don't have to use heaps of pressure to get good suction. There's also much more mobility while noogling. I ironed for a couple of hours last night without loosing suction once. If you can sleep on your back then this would be the way to noogle-sleep as it sticks the way I imagine the silicone on Brava sticks. Red rings disappear pretty much as quickly as the foam rings and the whole setup isn't as bulky as the foam is. The only extra tip I can think of is not to lube near the blu-tack - just the rest of the breast.

I got so excited I set my alarm for 4am this morning and did my doze-noogle for much longer this morning - very nice results indeed!!

thanks for the tip mumma bear.. would you advise this instead of buying a yoga mat? 

[jellyDeeeee]

Oh Dear my spelling girls !!!! ?? sorry love jelly xoxoxoxoox

[Mumma Bear]

Hi Choco - I couldn't say really, as I haven't tried the yoga mat, but I'd probably try the easiest, cheapest and quickest way for you first.

Hi Jelly - no worries - it just looked like you might be noogling at the same time as typing - so totally forgivable in this little virtual spot in the universe!

What a great idea!  I've been getting a rash from using the domes without the rings or a yoga mat (couldn't seem to get the yoga mat to work) so this would be great, especially as I am trying to sleep in them.  I've tried sleeping in them for the last few days but I keep waking up in the middle of the night and taking them off when I'm half asleep so maybe this will mean that it's more comfortable and I don't need to rip them off at night!!  I'll definitely be trying this... x xx x

[Rachiex]

Wow, thanks mumma bear for the tip.  I tried this yesterday and it is soooo much more comfortable than just using the domes on their own which is what I was doing before!  It did stick a little bit to my rash which was a bit painful but the red rings took way less time to disappear than normal, I got much better suction than before when I would get really good suction and then have to rip the domes off because of the pain of the plastic digging into my rash! Brilliant all round! x x x x

[daylight]

so how was the rash?

was it better tahn just using nothing on the dome....

did it make the rash worse while noogling?

also...did you geel pain when you were noogling in the side of your armpit due to the rash..... or did it just hurt when you took them off.

[Rachiex]

Hi daylight

The rash is by the armpit on the right side (my right boob is smaller so maybe I was pumping too much on this side to catch up with the other one and it caused a rash!)  I already had a rash before I used the blu tac so the blu tac didn't cause it. 

The blu tac is definitely more comfortable than not using anything with the domes.  I tried the foam rings but they made me lose suction and I tried the yoga mat thing but I couldn't seem to get it to work so I went with the blu tac idea (just 66p a packet!) and it seems to be more comfortable!

Whilst noogling with the blue tac, I can still feel a very very slight pain from the rash (I wish it would go away!) but it's definitely nothing like when I just used the domes on their own.  Each time, the plastic would rub on the rash and make it worse and worse each session.  When I take off the domes with the blu tac on, yes it does hurt!!  I think it's because I do already have a rash and I do try and do as much pressure as I can by building it up over the hour and pumping a little bit more when I feel like I can and holding.  The blu tac really does stick to your skin and pulls when you take it off!

I don't think the blu tac has made the rash worse.  I can use plasters better with the blue tac as the plastic domes used to lose suction when I would use them without the blu tac.  Also, the red rings aren't so bad and they take a little less time to go down (depending on the suction you use)

Does anyone have any tips on how I can get rid of the rash for good?  I really don't want to take a break already and wait for it to clear up as I've only been doing this for 3 1/2 weeks and I would lose all my swelling.  I am using 100% aloe vera gel and plasters when I noogle and try to keep things from rubbing against the rash.  Anyone else managed to get rid of a rash like this?

Rachie,

try putting on aloe vera gel on before you noogle? i had really bruising and this helped with the blutack noogling

HTH

okay i had a rash but its almost gone but if i noogle without the foam rings..the rash returns...

so today i went and bough blue tack

okay first i didn't put any lubricant on....second...so i was trying to get suction with the blue tack it just wasn't working...

so i put the foam rings on it....so...it works wonders...

thats all i can say...blue tack makes the rings stay and is very comfortable
so ya..since i know that if i just use blue tack...firstly i haven't tried it with a lubricant...but still like you said...it would still cause a rash...

but the foam rings with the blue tack seems to work AWESOMELY:D

but i guess once my rash is fully gone ill just take off the rings and just use blue tack:D

[jellyDeeeee]

oh thanks daylight Ill try that too my husband saw my nasty marks and said hmmm looks like youve had surgery ..... then felt my boobs and said Hmmm with a different tone  feells like youve gone up 3 sizes.......... and played with my jellies lol....
