BathMate Progress :: 10 Weeks With a Newbie

OK, so today I ordered by Bathmate X-40 from the most reputable Australian supplier I could find, adultshop.com.au, at AU $239.00 including the cleaning / storage kit upgrade (ouch). It’s a little pricier than I was hoping for, but this does mean fast shipping, no troubles with Customs and very discrete packaging.

Just a note on the cost, though; I did find another vendor at Bathmate.com.au with much better prices, but this looked like a cheap osCommerce set up and it wasn’t listed on any of the other Bathmate sites. They were also using a cheap third-party merchant and listed a mobile (cell) number as their only contact details. I decided to stick with a large, well-known vendor rather than risk getting a knock-off (like my Ab Shaping Circle Pro).

As I’ve never done any kind of penis enlargement or manipulation before, I’m planning to start slow and work my way up to a full routine. From what I’ve read on the forum, this seems to be the best way to go (don’t want to rush anything and end up damaging myself).

So to start with, I’ll most likely go 1 x 15 minute session every second day at a lower pressure for the first week or so, then ramp up to a daily run of DLD’s Bathmate Hardcore Stretches and Bathmate Girth Blasters over a period of 5 weeks or so.

I am below average at the moment. My aim is to get to slightly larger than average over a 12 month period and see how my wife is handling things from there. I’m also in the process of losing weight and getting fitter.

My starting stats are as follows:
BPenis EnlargementL: 118mm / 4.65”
EG: 108mm / 4.25”

I will aim to make a post the day after I’ve received and used the Bathmate for the first time, with measurements from immediately after use and then the next morning. After that, I’ll aim to post at least once a week with my intended routine and statistics for the week before.

Welcome to the forum. This place rocks haha! I started with similar stats. 4.5" nbpel and 4" eg. I started pe back in 2008 using an extender. Ive used it on and off and it has helped me gain .75" in EL. The Bathmate is the only thing that has helped me gain girth. I just got it in march. I love it. This forum offers great support and information. I have similar goals. I'll tell you from experience, consistency is key to making gains so stick with it. Don't make my mistake of losing motivation and just stopping. Had I been consistent since I Sweet. started, I probably would have reached my goal by now and I wouldnt even be doing doing pe anymore lol. Good luck!

welcome bro.
Come and join the fun. I'm gonna get a Bathmate as well soon, just waiting for them to reply and tell me if the kit they're selling on amazon is the same as the kit on their own website. amazon.de has it for 100 EUR and lists Bathmate Europe as the seller and it has been mentioned by their support (Sid) as legit to me, but I'm kinda wondering why they're charging 120 EUR on their own site for apparently the same thing. Oh well, gotta wait for their reply

Thanks for your comments and encouragement! Really appreciated.

My brand new Bathmate arrived yesterday afternoon. It arrived in a non-descript Australia Post Express Bag which contained an unmarked cardboard box. The Bathmate and the cleaning kit were wrapped in a enough bubble wrap to keep a small nation entertained for a month – they did not want it to break in transit! The supplier, adultshop.com.au looks to have sourced the unit from the EU (which explains why it was so expensive).

I read the instructions and manual, which are written in proper English (not another language simply put through a translator, but actual English).

I started in the shower, gave myself a good warm up (ie, went fully-erect, then allowed penis to soften a tad), filled the unit with warm water, slipped myself in and started pumping. To start with I found the unit a bit cumbersome and awkward, but after a couple of goes, managed to get a good seal. I’m sure I’ll be OK next time.

As described, I found that there was a feeling of a genuine vacuum being applied. It certainly wasn’t an erotic feeling, but wasn’t what I’d call unpleasant. As directed, after every 5 minutes or so I gave the unit another pump; this applied additional vacuum but was not at all uncomfortable.

I ended up going the full 20 minutes for the first use because I didn’t feel I was in any danger of damaging myself, even though I’m brand new to Penis Enlargement.

OK, so now the bit you’ve been waiting for...

My starting stats were as follows:
  BPenis EnlargementL: 118mm / 4.65”
  EG: 108mm / 4.25”

During the actual pumping session, the marker on the tube said I got to around 135mm / 5.31”

Immediately after my first session, I was:
  BPenis EnlargementL: 132mm / 5.20”
  EG: 115mm / 4.53”

After around 12 hours, I am:
  BPenis EnlargementL: 128mm / 4.96”
  EG: 110mm / 4.33

So, after 12 hours I am still a full 10mm / 0.4” longer than when I started and 2mm / 0.08” wider. Honestly, I couldn’t be happier with this outcome.

I did make some other observations, though: As reported by a few other people, my penis seemed “fatigued” for about an hour after the session (while yes, it was bigger, I was unable to get a full erection) and; I managed to pinch some skin at the base of my penis during the session (I suspect bad pump positioning) and ended up with a small blood blister. After 12 hours the blister is gone, though.

I’ll rest everything this evening and do another session tomorrow evening. I’ll then attempt to report back Saturday morning (AU EST). Thanks again for reading!

Nice reporting. I have a X-40 on the way and I can't wait to see what kinds of gains I'll get. Looking forward to your next post.

Very cool! You are about to fall in love all over again! Your penis will be very appreciative!

Thanks again for the comments - and apologies for the delay on my post (had to work this morning).

So last night’s session with the Bathmate was a little frustrating. Actually, that’s wrong. It was infuriating. The reason I was so grumpy is that the release valve leaked for almost the entire session. Basically, the valve on the top of the unit was allowing air back in to the vacuum chamber at a steady pace. This meant getting any decent, sustained pressure was at best, difficult.

I have since done some research and found the most likely cause is the sealer grommet on the valve. It may need repositioning or wasn’t flexible enough during the session to form a seal. The solution, it seems, is to allow the Bathmate five minutes to warm up as well.

I’ll let you know how I get on with tomorrow’s session. If it’s still leaking, I’ll have to contact my supplier...

In the mean time, here’s the result from my second session:

Immediately prior to the session I was:
BPenis EnlargementL: 128mm / 5.04”
EG: 109mm / 4.29”

Immediately after the session I was:
BPenis EnlargementL: 133mm / 5.24”
EG: 118mm / 4.65”

After around 12 hours, I was:
BPenis EnlargementL: 128mm / 4.96”
EG: 110mm / 4.33

For starters, that means I held my length gain from the first session for a full 48 hours (10mm / 0.4&#8221 and still had around a millimetre on my initial girth. Not bad.

The second session seems to have simply maintained the growth from the first, although I suspect varying and unstable pressures may have prevented any real short-term gains. Again, we’ll see how we go on the next round.

A few more observations this time around: As posited in my second post, the blister that appeared after the first session seemed to be a result of bad device positioning (a bit of practice and patience solved that one) and: Performing PC exercises seemed to help with short-term girth gains (another gem from the MOS forum).

Keeping with my current plan, my next session will be tomorrow (Sunday). After that, I aim to use the Bathmate for six nights next week (want to give the ol' boy a rest once a week). I’ll report in Monday morning with results from Sunday’s session, then every Sunday after that with the preceding weeks' results and a plan for the following week.

Thanks again for your support and encouragement!

You can take the valve apart to clean and reposition. There is a post somewhere on the topic. If I find I will link.

First up, my apologies for the delay in this post - work has been beyond insane.

After much playing around with my Bathmate (thanks for the tip DLD), I’ve come to the conclusion that the unit has a faulty valve. Unfortunately, this means I have to return it to the supplier. I put in a request on Sunday night and received an apology note complete with an RA by 10:30 the next morning. Not bad...

The unit is being put in the post today. I’ll throw another post up as soon as the new unit is in my hands.

Incidentally, I’m still holding the 0.4” length gain from the first session. Can’t wait to get started again.

Wow.... that's impressive gain for length based on a device primarily used for girth. I'm hoping to order mine soon.

I know everyone talks about pumping out of the shower and this makes me wonder how because if I put water in my Bathmate the water pours out of the valve. I would think if I was going to pump out of the shower this would make a huge mess

Once the Bathmate is pumped the water will no longer come out until the valve is released. It is always a good idea to keep a towel and bucket nearby.

Ya once its pumped it seals off.. I didn't know the way people talked if they were supposed to seal while you put water in it before you started to pump. I've got to hold the little black deal down

First up, my apologies for the delay in this post - work is still beyond insane.

My Bathmate arrived back on 19 June, making for about a month turn-around on the replacement unit. The retailer is a big company with a small returns department, so I suspect the unit was boxed up in goods-inwards for the vast majority of that time. I've chalked the delay up to poor staffing, rather than an uncooperative manufacturer.

My first session back was on 20 June. I was pleasantly surprised to see the vast majority of my gains still in-tact after my time off! Starting with a BPenis EnlargementL of 125 mm (4.92") and MSEG of 109mm (4.29"), I went straight into a full session (20 mins with the Bathmate at full vac for the last 5 mins, as per directions) and straight away started seeing gains again.

Working through my next few sessions, I recorded the following IMMEDIATELY PRIOR to using the Bathmate (ie, measured after around 23 hours after my previous Bathmate use).

20 June: BPenis EnlargementL 125 mm (4.92") / MSEG 109mm (4.29")
21 June: BPenis EnlargementL 129 mm (5.08") / MSEG 109mm (4.29")
22 June: BPenis EnlargementL 128 mm (5.04") / MSEG 109mm (4.29")
23 June: BPenis EnlargementL 133 mm (5.24") / MSEG 110mm (4.33")
24 June: BPenis EnlargementL 133 mm (5.24") / MSEG 110mm (4.33")

For the next week, I only recorded the time spent using the Bathmate, rather than all the vital statistics (takes up time which I don't presently have). After 6 sessions (Monday through Saturday with Sunday off), I recorded (again, after more than a day without using the Bathmate)

BPenis EnlargementL: 134 mm (5.28")
MSEG: 111 mm (4.37")

Again, very happy with the progress here! At the current rate I'll hit my (revised) goal of BPenis EnlargementL 5.5" and MSEG of 5" very soon.

THIS WEEK:
I'm aiming for big girth gains and limited length gains this week (I'll get to why in a moment), so the plan is to use the Bathmate for one 20 minute session a day from Monday to Saturday. I'll augment the routine with a variation on the DLD's Slow Squash Jelq.

REVISED GOALS:
After doing some experimenting with my wife over the last couple of weeks (we got here a new PureSkin toy) we've worked out that she can't really take more than around 5.75" (effective length). Anything longer (like the 6" toy) can clip her cervix when pushed in all the way. She's expressed in no uncertain terms that THIS HURTS! Thus, the aim over the next couple of weeks is to build as much girth as possible while limiting length gains.

Thanks for sharing your experiences! I'm a newb reading up everything I can, before I take the plunge and purchase this.
Please continue to track your progress

I personally think your expectations are way too much, especially on girth .... there is no way your going to gain 2 inches of permanent girth especially considering the fact that there is no real proof that the Bathmate gives permanent girth, at the most people have been able to gain half an inch of girth (which is what i want to gain) with the Bathmate (only words proof), so far i havent seen before and after pics measuring the penis, showing that their girth increased by using the Bathmate (im not talking about the temporary increase in girth the Bathmate gives) i could care less about that temporary increase, if you are going to buy a $100 penis device just for temporary increaee in girth that lasts 30 minutes to 1 hour, then there is something wrong with you. I only care about permanent results that are proven with before and after pics.

Orlandopunk - If you dont believe that this works and that there is no substantive proof that it works, why are you bothering to post. Especially given that you feel the Original Poster has something wrong with him! The reality is, that even if it doesnt bring permanent gains, as long as he is happier and more confident after using it, then it's money well spent for him.

What is it with you orlandopunk..?

People post for help and you always put a downer on it..? If you don't believe that Penis Enlargement or Bathmate work then don't do it.

There are lots of guys that have gained in length and girth, on all of the Penis Enlargement forums, do you think that they are posting BS everyday of their lives just for the laugh..? There are lots of photos knocking about as well, if you took the time to search then you would find them.

Maybe Penis Enlargement is not working for you, maybe you are not doing enough or doing it incorrectly. Instead of criticizing everything and everyone, why don't you seek advice to help you actually get your Half inch gain..? :s

i do believe is possible to gain lenght, i think the results are not fully permanenet, i mean if you stop you might lose some gains, but not all. I believe girth is extremely difficult to increase and is pretty much genetic ... 2 inches of gains is just not realistic

lol my half inch gain .... this is one of the reasons why im looking for pictures of people that have gained girth with the Bathmate, especially people who are already above average 5.75'-6'

Click to expand...

If that were true most gainers would have knitting needle-like penises that would eventually snap due to the lack of thickness needed to sustain its size. Girth you will find comes via length gains. I myself have permanent gains and went from 6.6x5.4 inches erect to 8.3x7 erect so that's not quite 2 inches in girth but not far from it.

Welcome to my thread, OrlandoPunk. Thanks for your comments. I have a couple of quick notes:

Firstly, I was a bit disappointed to see you criticising the lack of evidence available on the Bathmate in a thread that is attempting to provide exactly that. I did a significant amount of research before taking the gamble (and here it's over $230 with the cleaning kit, and the Australian dollar is better than the US at the moment).

I have taken before photos and intend to take after photos, as well as give a full account of my methodology throughout the whole process. I have also taken detailed measurements, most of which have been posted here. Shy of you visiting me to see the actual results, I'm not sure exactly what else I can offer...

Girth Target:
Granted, a 2" gain may have been a bit ambitious, but there have been more than a few reports of people who start out with smaller-than-average penises (like myself) making massive gains very quickly with the Bathmate. If, however, you'd read my last post instead of going off half-cocked, you'd have noticed that the final goal has been reviewed down to BPenis EnlargementL 139mm (5.5") and MSEG 127mm (5"). This has now been adjusted in my signature.

Permanency:
From what I understand, ALL enlargement programs will have some degree of long-term maintenance about them. I think the fact that after about 3 sessions I was able to take a month off and still retain most of my gains speaks for itself, though. I intend to become a long-term participant in this community so stay tuned to see how I go.

General Etiquette:
Your last two posts have not actually contributed to this thread. I know why I'm here; I'm attempting to provide a diary and some kind of evidence for other people to look at; others have offered encouragement and tips; so why are you here? If you're only going to tell me I'm clueless, mock my decisions and criticise others that are attempting to gain value out of this thread, then perhaps you'd better not post here anymore!

I started this thread with the intention of helping others get some more information on this relatively new product, not start a flame war.

Take no notice of the guys negativity he cant help it and from the screen name with punk at the end we should expect abit of attitude
