How Much Drainage from Tubes is of Concern?

muf
I'm emptying about 40 mL out of both breasts every 4 hrs., the 3ed day after breast augmentation surgery. It seems like a lot. We are hoping it will slow down greatly over the next few days and get my tubes out on day 6. Just worried over the amount I am loosing, and has anyone had a similar experience, or any advice?
