butterfly, they look like powder from greenbush but I believe they are gel caps, I ordered my EPO off amazon, I didn't know greenbush had EPO till a lil while ago. and I put a hole in the capsule with a knife and squeeze out the oil from it into the booby batter and mix it. I seen on amazon that you can buy just EPO just the oil and not in a gel cap, I just wouldn't be sure how much to put in the batter. I went by the same measurements as the batter on Pammy's routine except I added fenugreek to it. I believe hers only has fennel seed, but she used extracts. I recently ordered extracts and waiting on them. The powder does exfoliate, but after a while has made my nipples very sensitive so I'm going to switch to the extracts.
I just went to the grocery store today after getting back from the beach and got 2 cartons of soymilk, I'm going to drink 6 to 8 ounces a day and see what that does. I am thinking of just mixing in my protein mix in it and drinking it in mornings.
Also I have now ramped up on my herbs, I am taking 4 daily of each WY, SP, and FG, I take two caps of each in the morning, one of each at lunch and one of each at night, I still take 2 each daily of the flaxseed oil and EPO, I take one of each in the morning and one of each at night. I'm going to see how this goes the next few weeks then might ramp up again. Eventually I will get to where I take 2 of each WY, SP, and FG three times daily. And one of each EPO and flaxseed oil three times daily. If I do not maintain at least an inch of growth in the next month I might add MSM as well.

Okay I measured today and it's been 6 days since I been off my period and I'm at 34 1/2 inches at the nipples and that's holding the tape measure a lil tight, more relaxed it's at 34 3/4 inches. So I did get 1/2 inch of growth! YAY! Now 1 1/2 inches more till I get to my 36 inch goal.
Also I did ramp up this week, I am now taking one each 3 times daily, 1000mg of EPO and 1000mg of flaxseed oil caps, so a total of 3000mg each daily. I am also now taking 5 each FG, WY, and SP, at 575mg each cap, so 2875mg daily of each. I take 2 each FG WY and SP in the morning and at night along with one each EPO and flaxseed, at lunch I take one each FG WY SP EPO and flaxseed. I am still drinking 8 ounces of soy milk daily, I also take a multivitamin daily. I drink alot of orange juice so I get alot of vitamin C. Also instead of using the powder herbs in my massage, I make my booby batter with EVOO, EPO and fennel extract now, I like this alot better than the powder, I don't have to wash it off, I leave it on and let it absorb and I haven't gotten a rash with it.
I'm going to see how this effects me and I may end up ramping up again in a few more weeks.

That's cool. Congrats on the half inch! It also seems that you're pretty close to following Pammy's routine exactly. Do let us know how things go on the program. I'll be using the fennel extract sometime this week whenever I get it in the mail (only thing I dislike is waiting on my herbs, but at least the shipping is fast). I'll be adding it internally too since Flatmama was getting immediate results. If I happen not to handle it well, I'll just use it in massage. Anyhow, glad you're doing good so far!

I measured again yesterday a lil over 24 hours after pumping and I was at 35 inches! so that's a full inch increase since starting. I measured after pumping yesterday and I was at 35 1/2 inches still but waiting on the large domes to arrive since I fill the mediums now, thinking they will help me go past 35 1/2 inches after pumping. Maybe I can be at 36 inches by my birth day in September, that would be an awesome bday present!
I'm still taking the same amount of herbs I was taking on my post on the 5th, gonna stay with it till the end of the month then might ramp up another pill of SP, FG and WY

Anastasia, I'm curious about the noogleberry. It is just like a breast pump with domes instead? Or does it pump differently?
Congrats...looks like you are getting close to that 36"!

well with noogleberry you can buy whatever accessories you want and pump the way you want, I use a double dome system with an airlock, I pump both breasts at the same time till they feel tight and tingly hold it for a min till it feels relaxed, pump again till it feels tight and do that till I get it at the tightest I can without pain then put the airlock on and hold it like that for the 30 min or hour I pump, I always pump an hour at night and when I get a chance I do an extra 30 min during the day, there are other techniques for pumping and I tried a few before determining what was right for me, they have a forum and tons of information on there about pumping techniques and many have posted pics on their success with it, Kultzu's is the most impressive to me, she went from an A to a D! and going for a DD, she doesn't even take herbs just uses the pump, so I think taking herbs and pumping is why I am getting fast results www.noogleberry.com/forum/index.php that's the link to the forum, course like on here you have to sign up to see the pics and such

oh and if you go with a noogleberry tell Lucy that Anastasia sent you, she gives forum members a discount and might give you one too

I was just wondering how different it was from a breast pump (since I already have one and could just get the domes if it was pretty much the same thing)

Oh you meant a milk pump, hmm I think it would depend on what brand and type of pump, the milk pump I had was a hand one and no the noogleberry domes wouldn't be able to go on it the noogleberry pump is handheld and light, Lucy I think has one now that has a gauge on it if you want to know the exact pressure you're doing. But I would email Lucy and ask her to be sure, and she can help you determine which dome size you should go with.
When I bought my noogleberry pump I thought that if when I pumped while breastfeeding it increased my nipple size, then a breast pump should increase my breast size and the theory held true. It doesn't hurt unless you overpump, and if you use the rings or make something like the others on the forum over there then it's easier to overpump, and women who overpumped ended up with bruises on their breasts and lumps, so yea not a good idea. I been going gentle on mine.

yeah I was just curious about that because seems crazy to buy a pump that might be exactly like a milk pump. Mine is one of the really nice Medela double pumps. That's why I was wondering. I haven't looked much into breast pumps like Brava and stuff....just didn't know how different they would be from something like that.
That's interesting that your nipple size increased from pumping during breastfeeding. Mine didn't at all and I pumped a lot and on full strength. They didn't end up any bigger than they were during pregnancy.

Let me know how it goes and what Lucy says if it can work with your pump, cause my cousin has a medela pump so if it works I'll send her my medium domes once I get the large since I'm out growing em.

Well last night I pumped for the first time in about 3 or 4 days, I wasn't able to pump for those days as I wasn't feeling well and also my breasts and nipples were extremely sensitive, think maybe I'm having a growth spurt? Well before pumping I measured at 35 inches still so it's permanent which is good. After pumping with the medium domes I am at 36 inches! Hopefully my large domes will be in on friday and that will be the push I need to make the 36 inches permanent. If I can make it permanent that will make me a C, but hmm after pumping the 36 inches just didn't seem that big as I thought it would, so if I can get it permanent, I might keep going and go for a D.
Oh also I ramped up in the past week to taking 2 of each, SP, FG, and WY 3 times a day and 1 each flaxseed oil and EPO 3 times a day. I also started putting a little bit more of the fennel in my lotion than normal.
Also, hubby and I were talking the past week about starting to try to get pregnant. We had discussed a few times about having a baby next year. He was saying we might want to start trying soon cause it might take a while. So I stopped my birth control, if I get pregnant anytime soon I will stop BE all together until after I'm done nursing. But at least now I know what to do after pregnancy to get my boobs back. We aren't actively trying yet, he wears a condom or pulls out when we have sex. I was thinking about actively trying in maybe Oct/Nov. But if it happens sooner it's fine. I might just wait till early next year to actively try. We are saving money here and there already to have it for the baby.
I'll update everyone on what we decide to do.

I have that pump too and was wondering if the noogle domes would work with it. Good luck with the baby! Maybe you can grow some and keep it!
