    Hi ladies

    After some reassurance as not not sure if my implants have ‘slipped’ down or if they are actually where they are supposed to be and nothing to worry about.

    Basically I can totally feel the implant at the bottom of my boob and it almost feels like it’s folded even at bottom almost as if it’s slumped down and gathered there of you see what I mean.

    I thought the implant would be against the chest wall rather than in the actual boob, rap for partial unders?

    I’ve tried to draw a quick sketch to show what I mean. The shaded area is where I can feel the implant and the darker line of where it feels harder like a bit of a ridge, though it does move if I palpate it.

    I spoke to the nurse last week and she felt it sounded normal like they were just settling into place but if. I want to see her she’s happy to book me in. I felt reassured after speaking to her but now the doubt is creeping in again.
    Is it normal for the implant to be in the actual ‘boob’ and also for it to be so obviously there?

    With partials the muscle covers the top of the implant not the bottom. What you are describing sounds normal but call your nurse for reassurance.

    Just read bottom part of your post don’t worry Hun if your nurse says it’s fine it will be.
    I am guessing you are still to have your 12 week surgeon check which greatly reassured me x
