  • It is very normal I have been able to feel mine since I was about a week post op. On the plus side, it should be easier when you go in for a fill Good luck to you!

  • I can't feel mine either. Don't care as long as Dr. can find it. I sure don't want to have to worry about bumping it ..I think it is still underneath a lot of fat. Muell, you look great.....I'd like

It is very normal :) I have been able to feel mine since I was about a week post op. On the plus side, it should be easier when you go in for a fill :) Good luck to you!

Muell, you look great.....I'd like to hear your story.!!!

I cant feel it either!! It is funny where I thought was my port area, and I was always holding it, and feeling it, was not where my port is!!

I need to go back to kindergarten ;) I just re-read the original post and see that Mama Mama said she "can't" feel her port, not that she "can" feel it lol. Sorry for the mis read, my post probably didn't make sense, but like everyone else has said, it is normal to not feel your port as well :) I have seen many posts on here with the same concern, so you are not alone :)

Ugh I am so jealous that you can't feel your port. Mine is always pooching out and I graze it with my arm while I am walking. One of my teacher friends noticed that I put my left hand over it when I am tired or hungry, like a worry stone!

I couldn't feel my port but when I went for my first fill she said do you know where your port is I told her no she took my hand and said its right there amazing when I'm laying flat on my back is the only time I can feel it I was always sitting up when I tried to feel it
