Recurrent capsular contracture
It would be very difficult to know if you are going to develop a recurrent capsular contracture two weeks after surgery. You should follow up regularly with your plastic surgeon (discuss how often with your surgeon), who would be the best person (other than you) to monitor the status of your implant capsules.
Good luck.

Recurring capsular contracture
It sounds like you have done everything to help combat a recurring capsular contracture. Still we know that the capsule rate is about 50%. Capsules can occur anytime usually in the first year or two. Hope you are one of the half that will stay soft. Your result looks great so far.
Best of luck,
