How much fluid should leak out when you don't have tubes put in after a breast augmentation?

nervousnellyyy
Two weeks post op i had my stitches taken out. Shortly after i had a crazy amout of fluid drain out of one of my breast. This has been happening for about 3 days straight now, an entire pool of fluid spilling out onto the floor. No odor, no fever, and my dr put me on antibiotics. My question is, is this amount of fluid normal, how long is the fluid going to continue to spill out for, and do I need to go back to the dr to check the incision or fluid, or just stay the course? Thank you.
