Tomorrow it will be 2 weeks since my surgery, I have lost 13 pounds so far since the pre diet most of which I lost during that time. Have no resistance in band yet, my dr waits at least 3 weeks to a month post surgery. My question is I can see the port and feel it under my skin especially when I'm laying down, is this the norm?

Totally normal

Thanks Cazzy, it's kind of freaky.

I don't know where my doctor put my port. Its only 2 days post op for me but i tried to feel for it and could not. In fact I don't know what size of band he put inside. I see him on a after surgery followup, on Aug 21.

yes it is freaky, my friend has hers above her bellybutton, where's yours at if you dont' mind me asking...

totally normal! Mine got more prevalent the more weight I have lost. It is funny when you can see it pop out like a turkey timer!

Mine is placed on my breast bone, it is more common in the UK to be sited here as it is fixed to bone so doesnt move as much and doesnt get in the way if you have abdominoplasty , tt and bodylift like i had .. it does stick out a lot since the weight was lost but its hidden by my bra so no one can see it except me

Over my belly button a little to the right. I'm very short so it's really under my breast bone too. Not much room there lol. Jr I just now got to where I could find it, my stomach has been so swollen I looked pregnant for a while, still some swelling but most of it's gone. Other than having an allergic reactiion to the bandages and being broke out & itchy I feel pretty good.

Mine is just below my sternum (breast bone), but I have a friend whose port is just to the right of her belly button. I can feel mine standing or laying flat. I haven't lost enough to see it, but that may be possible after more weight comes off. Since I'm not really a bikini kinda girl I could care less.

You're probably still swollen up a bit which may keep you from feeling it. I couldn't find mine until I went in for my first fill and the Nurse found it.
