bathmate after 3 weeks and my gains

I've been doing Penis Enlargement and reading this forum for a couple years now, and this is my first post. Let me first say thank you DLD and all the contributors of this website, your info truely works.
I've made about a 1 inch length gain with lots of manual stretching and jelqing the last couple years, but I had a hard time with girth until now with the Bathmate.

I started with DLD's newbie routine and made some immediate gains. I was instantly turned into a believer when I started noticing some pretty logical things come to life. I started thinking of it not as just "my dick is going to grow", but rather the individual things that made logical sense when dealing with my body; for example the kegels, its a muscle and I know I can strengthen that muscle, which in turn gave me harder erections and a nice visible divot at the top base of the penis when I'm hard and I flex it. Its also the muscle used for ejaculation so right away i noticed I had bigger explosions. Its also logical that ligaments can be stretched, so I worked alot on the suspensory ligament and then noticed when i do a kegel my dick base goes lower due to the stretched ligament, exposing more of the base and therefore i get longer. I also been eating healthier, taking multivitamins, and working out, because its logical that my body needs to be healthy for my dick to be healthy. Excersizing the penis also gets rid of the fat pad around the base which makes it look better and its longer and stronger. I've always has a skinny body so its not like I lost weight or fat, its actually working the groin area that makes the difference. So these things to me were very simple and logical.

But I always had a hard time with girth, even after lots of intense jelqing of all kinds listed on here. I never got even the slightest bit of expansion or temporary gains like I read on here and it was pretty frustrating, even to the point where it would sometimes bring me back to the non-believer status and i would look at my dick and say "i've been doing all this jelqing for nothing".
Then I got the Bathmate.

The first night I almost crapped my pants when I pumped up the Bathmate and my dick inside the pump was nearly twice as thick as I've ever seen it. Now I know what people are saying when they talk about expansion and temp gains! After about 15 minutes I pulled out and it shrunk down quite a bit from the pumped size, but it still looked so big in the mirror like it wasnt my own. I always wondered what it would feel like to hold my dick in my hand after I was thicker, and if I would notice. Well I definitely noticed, it felt like a baseball bat in my hand! I measured and I was an 1/8" bigger in girth than I've ever been!

Now I'm 3 weeks into using the Bathmate and I have that thicker dick everyday, even when I took a day or two off. The girth slowly goes down overnight, but I still wake up with a fatter dick than I'm used to, and the good thick flaccid hang lasts forever. I also hit 190mm in the Bathmate now, and just 3 short weeks ago I was so happy to hit 180mm.

I always warm up with a Bed Buddy. I do a quick 15 minute Bathmate session in the morning while I take a shower and get ready for work. I love how you can get some good suction with the Bathmate and then just walk around the house with it swinging and giving you some good tugging and stretching. (I've noticed I get a much better seal and suction when my dick is placed more in the top of the Bathmate instead of right in the middle.) Especially when I'm really hard, the Bathmate pulls down real nice on the suspensory ligament and it feels like what I used to do manually... except now the Bathmate does it for me while I'm walking around doing other things!
Then I go to work with a fat bulge in my pants like I own the world, and feel so good all day. Before bed I do 3 or 4 shorter sets with squash jelqing in between. but I notice I get alot of fluid when I squash jelq, and almost no fluid when I don't jelq. I noticed another guy saying the same thing, and a solution mentioned was regular jelqs, so I'm going to see how i do with regular jelqs and get back to you.

I love using www.thevisualiser.net to better see my gains by comparing my old size to my current size and then to my goal size. It really has boosted my confidence and kept me going a countless number of times!

I've gotten a bunch of bruising and red spots right away. I've seen that before when I broke blood vessels elsewhere on my body so I knew I was ok, but I was worried that it would last a long time. But I took a break for one day and the red spots totally disapeared. There was still a little discoloration but I know that will go away after a little longer of a break.

I'd like to ask something about measuring. For a long time at the beginning of my Penis Enlargement adventures, I would measure standing up, sitting down, or on different couches, and I would get VERY inaccurate measurements. Not until just recently did I realize that I need to be consistant with how I sit or stand when I measure, and I found that the best way to do that is to find the position where I am longest and always take a measurement of maxed out length. that way one day you wont be in a position or on the floor or something and take a mesurement and think you're suddenly longer.

So I'm curious how people measure, or how the penis surveys did it. Because even standing, I can get drastically different lengths just by breathing in or out, moving my hips slightly, protruding my pelvis, etc. Do you sit, stand, lie down?

Excellent news! Great day for me when my people are gaining! Thanks for sharing and inspiring all of us. Many guys are like you and they struggle with girth, manual exercises are sometimes just not enough to get girth to budge. The Bathmate really changes all of this and changes it quick. With the initial gains that most see after their first session it becomes very motivational and helps the psyche see that girth is real and possible. Once you see this and the belief is strong gains will poor in.

As far as measuring sitting or standing goes, go with whatever gives you a bigger measurement

Great to hear waking! Not too long and you'll be hitting 200mm. Stay consistent. Whenever you hit a plateau just increase the time you're using the Bathmate and you'll keep progressing.

What I would like to see is a Bathmate with an internal measurement system, not a sticker, one that will read in inches and centimeters. This could be a great thing for the pump.

Only part I didn't care for was between 190-200mm. I couldn't see where I was exactly unless I pumped with the sticker slightly to the side.

Thank you guys. I agree to take a length measurement in whatever position I am longest, and that will help to ensure consistent measurements, but I'm also curious what the official way is, i.e. the ways the famous penis studys did. I've read that studies like the Kinsley and Lifestyle condoms ones were done standing up. But standing to me would give really inaccurate measurements depending on the guy's posture. I can appear to stand in the same position but just move my hips slightly and get an extra 1/2 inch, or suck in my stomach and lose a 1/2 inch. Also, were the guys allowed to kegel in those studies? because that can give me an extra 3/4" sometimes. Guess I'd like to know exactly how I compare with those studies and measure like they did.

wow my fault, I just read my post and I realized that I put the wrong gains.... I have a 1/4 inch girth gain from the Bathmate

I'm getting better and better at using the Bathmate and easily getting an awesome suction. Almost a month in now and I feel and look thicker and longer. I've been trying to put off measuring length, but one night I couldn't help it and I measured. I was only about 3/4 erect but I still easily reached my previous super-hard length!
Once again, I got real bruised up and purple with red spots so I took another 1 day break and it mostly went away again, to my delight. I also mentioned in another post that my turkey neck is going away, the Bathmate really stretches the shit out of the skin on the underside of my penis and my balls hang lower.

DLD, I know you're busy, but do you (or anyone) have any insight to my question 2 posts up about the famous penis studies? Thanks!

I've had the Bathmate for 5 weeks now. Today I decided to do 3 sessions, morning noon and night, and at the end of my 3rd session I hit 200 on the Bathmate!! 5 weeks ago I could barely hit 180! :cool:

This is really quite encouraging to read. I myself am a bit on the lean side and my current girth is just about 4.5" somewhere you began. I started using the Bathmate a week ago, I have planned to measure after a month and see where i stand. You say you use the Bathmate around the house - ...This might be a sili question but do you do it with water in it or is it without water..??

Cheers

That is EXCELLENT, just perfect! Congratulations!

mrbig11, when I walk around the house with the Bathmate on I always use water. I never had any luck with suction without water.
I've gotten really good at getting a perfect suction so it doesn't even drip or leak or get any air in the tube or anything. The trick for me is to put the top of my penis against the top of the inside of the Bathmate tube, instead of centering my penis in the tube.
To clarify my gains, most of my gains came from manual routines of stretching and jelqing. I got instant results with DLD's newbie routine but after that I was stuck at around 5" girth for like 2 years. Now the Bathmate is helping me get over that girth plateau.

I've kept up with the 3 sessions a day for the past few days, but damn it makes my dick sore and purple, and I haven't been able to get back to 200mm yet. I know this is to be expected and I'll feel much better and probably hit 200 again after my next break (maybe this weekend).

Got myself an Ace self-adhesive bandage and some Cortizone 10 cream today. Trying to focus more on DLD's SRT. It's starting to get cold where I live and I hate when I get winter shrinkage, so I'm excited about the strapping concept to combat the cold. So far it's tough to put the bandage on so i get good flaccid length without making it squeeze my girth a little....

GG wakingdream, your progresses are awesome. But I have some questions. I only have Bathmate 4 times (since last Sunday). I bruise one time and I'm afraid pushing limits with it.
1) How many times did you have bruise?
2) Do they disapear?
3) From your 7.75" BPenis EnlargementL, you said working sometimes to your max (20cm). 7.75" = 19.68cm. So your max into the Bathmate is only 0.3cm over your BPenis EnlargementL. I'm 17.7cm and my max (the first time I bruised) is 19cm so 1.3cm more. I don't go to this zone anymore. I keep 18,5cm for the max. So my question is : when you say 20cm is your max, your are talking about the ultimate pressure or the limit of bruising?

I get discoloration and red spots every time i use Bathmate. it gets worse and more like a bruise if I use it many days in a row, 2 to 3 times a day. But the times I've taken a 1 or 2 day break, my dick goes back to looking normal so I haven't been too worried about it.

Kenryu, 200mm is what I've been able to reach pumping to the max. I pump to full pressure, at least by the end of the session. I need to start off slow most of the time and work up to the full pump.

I don't think the markings on the Bathmate are a good comparison to BPenis EnlargementL. The true length of your penis inside the Bathmate might be different than what it's saying on the tube, depending on your erection angle or curve inside the tube. I think it's more of an indicator of how far you've reached into the Bathmate.

I agree. Always keep measurements with the traditional methods. Indicators are awesome and the Bathmate is great with that but nothing trumps the ruler.

I was into the 4th day of my 3-a-day sessions and it hurt too much and had to stop. Sore and bruised and unable to pump. I guess my break comes today. 3 times a day is really intense, I'm gonna go back to 2 times for now.
Good news is it seems like most of the soreness comes from the surface and the bruised skin. it doesn't hurt when i pee or anything. my actual internal penis feels pretty good and healthy.

i gained 0.5" in lenghth from the Bathmate in my first week, but being a lazy cunt i stopped using it and that was like 5 months ago and still have the length, it also made my erections super hard. will start again.

Try Danclizers's 6mins by 6 sets routine, with 1 minutes rest in between sets. Thats a total of 36 minutes in the Bathmate.
