Question Is this NORMAL?? FLUFFING??

today I went out shopping with my sister....wore a barely there bralette (like the one in my avatar) ...my right boobie aching more than other...but I figured that's normal....

but when I got home...I took off my tank top and bra to look at my boobies (because I always look at them to see if they changed since the last time I looked..haha) and my right one seemed AND felt extremely soft and squishy,....like it's freaking me out...because my left one is still firmer...like not hard..it's squishy too....but my right one is the one that has the aching feeling and it's gotten EXTREMELY squishy like since this morning....so I'm wondering is this the normal and/or apart of the "fluffing" process?? since like during the fluffing process your boobies get soft and stuff...right??...ohhh mannn .HELP...

my nipples have all of sudden got extremely sensitive (I never lost feeling in them) and sorta feel raw...but I figure that's normal...but the whole all of a sudden softness and stuff in the right boobie has gotten me freaked out....I always thought implanted boobies are suppose to be firmer than this....maybe this is a good thing but I have no idea and am kind of scared in a weird way?

Wow

I can't answer your question since I am one day behind you but you look very good they don't even look like their new because mine are still swollen and high with an ugly hump that my PS said will go away.

My right boob got softer and more natural (squishy) feeling almost 3 weeks before the left! It drove me crazy! My left is finally catching up but is still numb below the nipple and not quite as soft as the right. I'd think that is has to be pretty normal, but still make sure you are wearing a good bra and if you are feeling like anything is out of the ordinary, then call your PS. Thats what we pay them the big bucks for You're looking good, girl!

Thanks girly ~ A good bra...as in? I did buy the VS IPEX wireless bra so I could feel somewhat normal haha ~ but my PS told me not to wear anything that had too much support or really any support because he said it will hold them up and we want them to drop ~ he even said camis are good but I may feel like there isn't enough support so I could jsut wear the barely there bralettes ~

and thank you for reassuring me that being "soft" is normal....it just blew me away today because it was so all of a sudden...

Mine softened up very suddenly too, almost over night!
I didn't have to wear a heavy supportive bra either, but I made sure to wear something comfortable and somewhat shaping. I actually wore the wireless IPEX then and now i LOVE them, but it's so hard to find them right now with the semi annual sale going on! Everything is wiped out!

yup you described how it felt for me when i softened up exactly!!!

interestingly... it also happened to me when i was shopping. i wonder if all the movement does something to them??? but i also had a little soreness and then... crazy softness on one side. implants can become very very soft.

now they're kinda even hth

fluffing so soon... woo hoo...that's okay with me hehe
I just wanted to make sure my implant wasn''t deciding to do somethng weird.....

Hmmm..about the movement thing you said .... I really wonder if that plays a part in the fluffing...because I tried on every piece of clothing in my closet last night to see what I had to get rid of (from not fitting anymore) and so I was lifting my arms alot and moving around...soooooo that could be it....hmmmm maybe it helped soften up the muscles and stuff....vettty interesting hehe

glad this is something normal lol

I'm barely 3 weeks post BA, but I have the same thing! My right boob is lower and softer than my left one!
Maybe its because your heart is on the left side??

You look great btw

The Barely There bralettes are pretty much very soft, stretchy triangle bras that provide just enough support (my PS doesn't want me having too much support right now..since he doesn't want them to drop slower than suppose to)

THe black one is pictured in my avatar ~ They come in band sizes only which is nice, so you don't have to worry about what cup size you are ~ Although, if you have biiiiiig implants you may want to go up one band size to accommodate them and just wear it on the tightest hook ~

You can purchase them practically anywhere ... Kohls, JC Penney, Mervyns, Macys...etc

HTHT

Same thing here my righty is soften up and on the move and my leftie is just hanging high and hard...hehe, maybe our lefties are just stubborn!! Then again, I am right handed so maybe that side gets more movement & shifting as apposed to my left side.

BTW *starkarros* what size bathing suit top did you have on, I know it is from VS but I was wondering if it is a s,m,l or an actual cup size? Sooooo cute, I saw they have it in different colors!

I think our lefties are just stubborn....what's weird though is that I'm left handed (that's why my left boobie looks better too...haha) ~ My left boobie is a beautiful ...well so is my right...but the right was slightly bigger and "drooped" more than the left...the left was tighter to begin with...but another weird thing...I use my right arm/hand to pick and hold everything...I'm an interesting leftie lol

anyhoo....yes the Bikini on the signature pic is from Victoria's Secret...It's actually a size SMALL (I crossed my fingers it would fit haha) I got a small because I have a small ribcage that everything is always so big and falling down around it...but this one ties in the back and fits great...and the cups aren't nearly as small as I thought they might end up ~ However, I got another bikini from VS and it's from the Beach Sexy collection ... my bf ordered me a Small top like I asked...and well lets says that one was an eyepatch haha (As he would say) ~ so I had to return it and ordered a Large in the top ~ so my words of advice if ordering from the Beach Sexy collection...get a Large...those cups are itty bitty... HTH

I need to by some new bathing suits......how is the quality, I don't have the best luck w/quality when it comes to VS but there bathing suits are so freakin cute!!
