I had my BA 4 months ago. I want to know if its normal for when you lay down for the implant to fall to the side. Only my right side does it and its to the point where i cant really lay on my back to sleep because its really uncomfortable and it is putting a lot of pressure in my armpit. At my last appt my PS said that it is normal because real breasts fall to the side a little bit. It just seems weird that only my right side does this but maybe its because it had dropped a little more than the left or maybe there is something wrong with the way the pocket is healing. Any opinions or incite would be great. THANKS!!

My breasts don't stay totally upright, they flatten out a tad, like naturals. I would probably be concerned about my implant putting pressure on my armpit like you described...maybe get a 2nd opinion, just to be sure??? best of luck!!

If your breast is falling into your armpit, thats NOT normal. It is normal for some falling to the side, as the other ladies pointed out that does look more natural, but when the implant falls into the armpit, one side or both, there is usually a problem with the pocket. You need to call your ps and make an appt and SHOW him exactly what you mean.
Sending positive thoughts that this is resolved for you.
