I had horrible swelling after my first birth, and my last, both with a pit. augment. I am telling you.... DOCS DON'T TELL WOMEN THIS CAN HAPPEN TO THEM WITH PIT! Sorry to yell. I had forgotten that this can happen with pit, it can also happen with an epidural. Do I have clinical evidence? no, not in my pocket, but I am sure it exists.... hello your feet swell after the augmentation, why wouldn't your breasts. Some of the worst cases of engorgement I have seen are on moms that either have epi & pit or a c/s... the stupid little release form they make you sign should have in bold letters "MAY MAKE YOU SO ENGORGED YOU'LL WISH YOU COULD DIE" end rant. back to your regularly scheduled lactnet.
