I had inplants 9 years ago. Everything was fine until I recently had a baby. I stopped breastfeeding 3 months ago but now it feels like I have an air bubble at the top of my right breast. During pregnancy my right implant also flipped but corrected itself after a few days. I got mastitis 3 times during breastfeeding and now am very conscious of any breast issues. What could this bubble be? Will it go away by itself? Is it breastfeeding related?

Tightness is a common aftermath of breast augmentation. Even though it is fine to return to a desk job, be mindful that you are still early in the healing process and may need to take breaks.
The photos that you show are certainly within normal limits following breast augmentation. Bleeding would only be a concern if one breast became much more swollen than the other breast and was painful and felt extremely tight. I would encourage you to relax and wait to hear from your surgeon.
