    Hi girls, I’m 8 weeks post op 300cc teardrop unders. I was told I didn’t need the band and bra anymore by my surgeon after 6 weeks. I was moving in my sleep the other night and literally felt my left implant move. Ever since I can feel a gurgling type sensation like there’s fluid in there. Anyone experienced that? Was concerned and hoped someone experienced this and it stopped.
    My concern is that I have teardrops and they can rotate, and also that I’m 8 wpo so this shouldn’t happen now!
    Any advice would be much appreciated!! Xxx

    I am going through the same thing right now! I went down the stairs quickly, and I felt this internal movement, it feels like the implant moving up and down but maybe fluid-like. I am 2 weeks PO and can feel the left implant move as expected, but the right feels different. When I bounce (carefully) up and down and hold my boobs tightly, I still get that sensation in my right. Feels very strange!

    I also have the anatomical shape I’m just paranoid if the pocket has come loose and it may turn? Wouldn’t be so worried if I had had rounds.

    Any update/progress from you @Maya? I’m seeing the nurse tomorrow for my two-week check anyway so I’ll ask then, but if anyone has any advice in the meantime it would be much appreciated! Xx

    Just had my 2WPO with the nurse. She said it’s totally normal, and if they were to turn (which she assured me is unlikely) it probably wouldn’t be until later on anyway.

    She did say, though, that now that I can feel them moving I need to make sure they’re staying in place with the bra etc. and make sure I don’t sleep on my front. I’m back to flat sleeping now, and she said if I sleep sideways make sure I put a pillow against/under my side to keep my boobs in place! Of course wearing the bra also xx

    Sleeping with a bra on forever?? Oh I didn’t know this. Wish I took time out to research.

    Glad it’s normal tho ???

    Hi girls. I’m experiencing similar, I am 2 weeks post op. Everything has been fine until tonight I was having a little feel and all of a sudden my left side closest to my armpit went all squishy and as felt as if I had lumps that I could move around on the side of my implant- totally freaked out and called my out of hours nurse who advised me I would need to go back to clinic for her to see. No pain/no heat/no redness just a very very squishy area, I’m worried about what this could be, is my implant moving or is this rippling? Or possibly ruptured??? I think I might be panicking too much?

    I spoke to some girls recently who have also gone through the stage of feeling them moving loads and they all said it subsided a few weeks later. Once the scar tissue has formed over the capsule we won’t feel it moving so much anymore.


    @Rebecca
    mine feel different every day, it’s so easy to overanalyse! Don’t worry about it too much, but obviously to put your mind at ease I would always double check with the nurse. I haven’t experienced this lump feeling but Intry not to touch them too much as I end up overanalysing, and our bodies are doing so much at the moment for us to heal! So many changes occurring x

    Hey girls! @mya170319 @rebeccastewartt
    I’m almost 4 months post op now. I noticed from the very start my left side is slightly less tight than the right. I don’t know if the movements stopped or if I’m just used to it now! My surgeon said that I’ll definitely be able to tell if it’s rotated so I shouldn’t worry. Once capsule is fully formed it’ll be ok. You’re all so early on so don’t worry about movement it’s just your tissue fluid and blood from surgery should heal just find. I used to hear the fluid move at the beginning. I think my situation is slightly different so don’t worry xxx

    ive been having the EXACT same problem, ive got anatomicals so i get so worried its starting to rotate but reading this thread has put my mind at ease. whenever i bend over or lie on my side i feel something move in one boob it’s so weird! sick of looking at my boobs in the mirror trying to work out if they’ve rotated and convincing myself they have? think we just need to let the healing process do it’s magic❤️

    Hi girls – I am only 5 days post op and with one I keep getting a gurgling type sensation as mentioned above 🙁 feels like fluid?? I am due to see the nurse on Monday so will mention it then but it is worrying me. Whenever I sit up or even move slightly it happens and it feels like something inside is not secure?? Does anyone have any advice? Thank you xx

    Hi Helen. My post op notes stated you may hear gurgling, so I would say this is normal x
