NEW SOFT CUP RINGS HAVE ARRIVED!!!

[Dixieland]

Cleo,
Yes, I fill the mediums and larges completely....(except the very small fraction of space as Anastasia said) but the large gives me the red (petechea) dots and I can't stand them b/c they take forever to go away.  Yes, the large tend to bite into my ribcage pretty hard, and that hurts like ****!  I have the foam rings but when I try them they either 1) squish out from under the rim or 2) can't get enough suction because of my bony little rib cage.  So, like I said I am waiting for Lucy to make a large contoured cup for us "little" people...hehehe! 

Anastasia,
Thanks for explaining to Cleo.  It is hard to put in words what it feels like to actually fill the large but use the mediums because of the red dots....I want to use the large but my skin doesn't like them, even with tons of lotion, etc. even though I can fill them within minutes once I have them suctioned on.  It's the beginning suction (I think) that gets me every time. 

Hugs to both of you!

Dixieland, it must be very frustrating not being able to use the large cups when you're already filling the mediums. I've never had the red dots that you and others have had but I know what you mean about the large hurting the ribs. I suffered badly when I started to use them and they seemed to pull a nerve in my back too which became very painful in bed at night.

Anastasia, my breasts start off at the bottom of the cup with my nipples squished against the bottom too but when I pump my nipples seem to stay in the same position and the top part of my breast pumps up. Also I've got no loose skin to pump up, the skin on my breasts is quite taut and although I've breastfed, this was 20 odd years ago so i guess my breasts have forgotten how to expand!! lol. Must be patient I guess!!

Cleo,
If you breast fed and you gained any size at all from it they will respond to the noogle.  If I understood you right, then your breasts are not getting sucked into the cups evenly....I was having this same problem (nip down)....just top getting sucked up into the cup and not the bottom...this is what JellyDeee told me to do and it helped alot....start out by bending over so that your breasts are "hanging" so to speak into the cup, when you have sufficient suction (not alot just enough to hold them)...then go lay over a couple pillows like you are going to do a back bend....that way the bottom of the breast has space to be pulled in....also keep your elbows/arms in an high upper "wave" position so that the skin on the up side of the breasts is tighter than the bottom...and hold the cups in place until they get suctioned on really well (I kept mine tightly in place until I knew that they weren't going to move on me)....mine tend to gravitate up and over towards my arm pit!  I remember the frustration of that!!!  Once you start getting swelling in the bottom part it does get easier and you don't have to do "acrobatics" as JellyDee called them....hehehe!  Hope this helps....her methods have really helped me over that last year or so...she is pretty awesome!!!

Hugs

Thanks for the advice Dixieland. I was concerned that my boobs were sitting at the bottom of the domes and not centrally. I do bend over so my boobs are 'hanging' to but the domes on but I'll try out the 'acrobatics' like you suggested and see if it helps. May get to fill the mediums quicker then. 

You're right about JellyDeee, read loads of her posts before I ordered my NB. Haven't seen her on here lately though.

Hi everyone! I'm new to this site & haven't yet purchased the noogleberry but so far im very impressed!I have been using the Brava bra for 5 weeks & its really starting to irritate me! i am a 32a & my goal is to reach a full B.I'm already having problems with the smartbox & this site has give me some helpful imformation about the airlock parts....Does anyone know whether the airlock part from the noogleberry site would fit onto my brava tubing? I still want 2 carry on with brava & will do so for another 10 weeks but after that i am definitely going 2 get the noogleberry as i am convinced it will work better than the brava...still not seeing any results!! =( my only regret is not finding out about noogleberry b4 spending £500 on this thing..

There have been other women on the board that used brava before noogleberry, or use the brava domes with the noogleberry pump, so I'm sure there are posts somewhere in the tons of info on here about it, hopefully someone can answer this, I could never afford brava, and it didn't sound like something I could do, so I went with noogleberry right away. It seemed to have the best customer service, the best support system with real women, and the before and after pics really helped for encouragement, so I went with it, and very glad I did. Everything I thought it was, it is and plus some. I hope you get where you want to be. Many on the board have went from your size to their goal. I'm almost at mine, and had my noogleberry since the summer, but due to life I have went a week or a few days here and there without pumping, if I were able to pump more constantly and more often a day like I'd like to do, then I believe I would have gotten to my goal by now.

YAY! Just received my NB kit yesterday.  Not a fan of the pinching and rings marks left after pumping.  I looked in the spares section & didn't see these soft cup ring thingys anywhere.  Would really like to order these, are they back ordered or have they been discontinued?

Hi Elia!

You need to send a PM to Lucy.  She'll take care of you.

Hi anastasia
         
thankyou for your reply! i've decided to order the noogleberry but im not sure what sizecups to get.i'm still using the brava but if i suck the air out the domes my boobs touch the end of them & they are the narrow but deeper in size domes.im a large 32a (if there is such a thing) but because ive used the brava for a while my boobs swell up quite a bit now..any suggestions? im thinking the mediums but if i need the larger ones how do i order them? thankyou for your time

[Anastasia916]

Sorry, didn't see this post until now, email Lucy at lucy@noogleberry.com and she can help you to decide on your dome sizes and such. I have no experience with brava or their domes, so I have no clue what their domes are like.

[Elia]

Thanks wannabecee

Lucy responded quickly and I received the rings just one week later.  They work wonders, noogeling isn't so painful anymore.

I was using almost 2 weeks, they are comfortable, but constantly I lose suction.  so, I prefer not to use. I would like if in the future nb will make soft rings with other material. that would be great
