Gotta get back into the groove again

A progress thread may or may not be necessary. Just coming here is enough to get me to do work.

Yesterday morning I had to skip my length session since my wife came home really early. I decided to get in a girth session with the BM last night though, first one in a long time. The gaiter bite was pretty intense but my penis was okay even when slowly Gelb to max pump. I started moving the BM around a bit, light pulls, testing the waters with the hernia repair. The BM does get over the area where I had a chunk of fat popping out. Everything was going okay...

Until it wasn't. I got a sudden sharp pain right where the repair was done when I was giving a slightly harder tug. It went away immediately when I stopped pulling but the fear did not. I held still for a few seconds before releasing pressure just in case sudden action would make it worse. I rubbed the area a bit and everything felt okay but I did not resume my session. I got about 5 minutes.

I'm going to try again and see if I can shift the BM more to my left. I had it as low as I could go without sucking my balls in (which I find very uncomfortable). So I'm giving the BM a few more runs to see what I can do. Did some reading here last night and I could possibly get a sleeve. The opening on the BM is just too wide and gets more of my pubic area than I'd like. Only issue with getting a sleeve is the wife seeing the charge on the account or it showing up and she gets the mail. I'll figure out something.

Feel fine today, doesn't seem to be any issues.

Did a stretching session. 1 round of newbie by hand and 2 rounds with the LM. Going to keep working length while figuring out how to use the BM.

I suggest you leave the bathmate routine for now. You don't want to complicate things. if you are able to train length for now, be grateful and stick with that for maybe another month before including girth
 
How intense was the pain? Was it a dull ache or a sharp shooting pain? If I remember you were repaired with mesh and if that be the case it may just need more time to heal.

I got a BM session in last night, just pumped up and kegels. I moved it more to the left but feel I need a sleeve or something to reduce the base opening. Got a bit of a pump out of it but not as much as I'd like.

Had to skip length this morning because the wife was home. I'll make up for it tomorrow.

It was a sharp pain. It was maybe a 5/10 and went away as soon as I stopped pulling.

I did have the mesh repair. From what I've been reading it doesn't appear I'm rejecting it because there's no swelling or redness. It's possible the muscle was sewn too tight or the nerve got caught up in there. If the things I'm noticing continue I'll have to get checked. For now I'm just hoping it's still healing. Some people take longer than others and I'm about to hit the 7 month mark.

Like I said earlier, if you are feeling more pains, it's best to stay away from girth work for another one month. I believe after one month you would be fine.

It's been 7 months since the surgery. I'm sick of waiting. I'll find ways to make it work. Too much of my life has been waiting and not doing.

Got a BM session in last night which was just max pressure and around 300 kegels. Just a little expansion.

Started my stretching routine this morning, got through a round by hand and was getting in the LM when the phone started ringing. Had to end my session right away to leave and go to my 2nd job. That combined with people pissing me the fuck off for their own selfish needs has me in a horrible fucking mood. If 1 more person irritates me they might get knocked the fuck out.

Ancient Chinese proverb says if man give you anger give anger back with punch to throat.

Unfortunately US Law calls that assault.
 
I guess this is becoming a progress/routine log in a way and part "vent the BS so I don't hurt someone" journal lol.

BM session last night. Got to max pressure fairly fast, just held in place straight out and did 250, maybe more, kegels. Didn't think I got a lot of expansion but had sex 30 minutes after and she felt tighter than normal. Unfortunately between the kegels and no sex or masturbation for a number of days I didn't go quite as long as I wanted. We were both satisfied though so no complaints.

Got a good stretching session this morning:

- 30s bundled each way to loosen up a little
- 1 set newbie stretches by hand, rotary cranks done twice in each position (opposite directions)
- 2 sets newbie stretches with LM, rotary cranks and straight out ones done twice with half twist (opposite directions)

Some tenderness at hernia repair site, more soreness than anything, but nothing to worry about. Might actually be a good thing as I've felt the muscle has been tight ever since the surgery. From my reading it's possible for it to get reconnected a little too tight so maybe this is what it needs. We'll find out.

7 months is a very long time. I cannot afford to stay off PE for that long. Just take it easy and continue using the bathmate with caution. Some times, I get interrupted as well when doing my routine and if I stop the session, I find it hard to continue the session once the intruder is gone.

Glad you are getting back into the groove again.
 
Hope it gets better for you soon clad. I could not imagine not being able to use my BM for 7 months. Just the other night I had finished pumping and had my pump sitting on the counter when it fell off into the sink and the top popped off and the little piece inside came off and went in the drain. I nearly shit myself and went in to plumber mode taking the trap off to get my part back. Put it back together and thankfully it was not broken

No pumping or stretching. It really sucked.

And I'd totally be in plumber mode if I dropped part of my BM in the sink. Glad you recovered it.

Lol nice.
 
200 dry jelqs last night, really forced a lot of blood into the head while doing them to the point that my glans was 100% smooth from the expansion. Almost 3/4 of my penis was red due to all the blood I was forcing in, not from irritation. Saw some expansion and had a nice little pump going from it.

Stretched this morning, same routine I have above (1 round by hand 2 rounds with LM). I already know Wed and Fri that stretching may not happen. That should be fine though as I like to give my penis a break occasionally.

Eucerin Cream applied after washing the baby powder off. Trying to get my glans back to extremely smooth all the time.

Hernia repair is still tender but feels like I worked the muscle. I know it will continue but if I'm right that the muscle was put together a little too tight this may be the key to loosening it up and getting back to normal. We shall see!

Trust me, I know that feeling and I don't want to ever experience it. It's the reason why I have 3 pumps in total just for backup

That effin' hernia's a bitch! Glad to see you're working your way through the recovery...you'll be 100% before you know it

The recovery certainly has fucked with me. I'm somewhat active meaning if there's something to be done I'll get on it. Having to watch limits beyond my own strength is killing me.

100 dry jelqs last night. 10 minutes later did I think 250 kegels in the Bathmate working to full pressure by the end of 50 kegels. I know I got some water retention but also got great expansion. Still conditioning to the BM so the water retention will subside in time.

No stretching this morning. I was unaware that the wife was off work. Pretty bummed out over that as I was looking forward to a session. Now I'll end up with 2 days in a row away from stretching. I'll probably do a round of stretches just before my BM session tonight to at least get some work in.

Like i said slow and steady, no need to rush a damn thing. The last thing you want is to rupture that hernia again and put yourself down for another few months. Be extra careful and take things very light as you heal work your way up in intensity.

The problem is I'm a Marine. I don't know how to not give 100% (unless it's something I really don't want to do, then it's easy lol).

I'm doing my best to go easy. I'm going to look into sleeves that will reduce the BM opening and see if I can get a guy at work to order them for me. I don't like hiding the cash from my wife but shouldn't be more than $20 to get 2 or 3.
