Post mastectomy/reconstruction with silicone implants. Is it normal to feel the silcone move around in the implant? Please let me know. Thanks,Pink755

    Sloshing?
    I think it's normal.....I can feel mine! Glad I can't hear them! (
    It's mostly in bed tossing and turning!) I've had mine for a year and a half, so maybe I'm used to them.

    ... due you have .... a sloshing feeling ???
    If so .. my PS told me that my tissue and implant are not fused, and in time our
    breast tissue will fill in that gap, adhere to implant and become one.

    Hope this helps.

    I have hqd my saline for 10
    I have hqd my saline for 10 years and I still can fell the fluid in one of them, and when I lay down it gets ruffles with ridges. Almost like a water balloon when you fill it but leave a little air in it.
