Thought I'd broken it on day three of cycling

[Kiwias]

Absolute panic this morning. I'm on day three of cycling my titan.
I've done it twice a day for the last 2 days since being given permission.
First day I managed to get to 11 pumps before it became too hard to pump and painful.
Second day I reached 13 pumps with the same result.
This morning I got in the bath for a cycle, gave the pump a quick pull down to get everything in place.
Then I started pumping. The first thing I noticed was that it was much easier to pump. The pump felt much softer and I was quite pleased.
Got to about 10 pumps and nothing appeared to be happening, 13 the same thing. Started to panic thinking I had broken it and was just emptying the reservoir into my tissue some where. I kept on going with my anxiety rising even further. Finally at 20 pumps I could see something was happening and by 25 it was hard and painful.
I was only slightly relieved, still thinking it was broken and would slowly deflate. However it stayed hard until I deflated 40 minutes later.

I then consulted with my little AI oracles ChstGPT and Grok.
While I don't fully trust their advice they both have very similar explanations about the capsule softening. Grok called it this “capsule stretch breakthrough” or “softening/loosening" and even gave me some references, including the Titan manual. Apparently it's common but usually happens a bit later.
I've now had a second session this afternoon and all appears well. Got to 23 pumps this time before I had to stop.
I must admit I'm now relieved but still can't get my head around how it all changed so fast.
Can anyone chip in to tell me whether this is a common experience or am I a bit of an exception?

I would say that it is common to have weird shit happen. Whether it’s this weird shit or that weird shit, breaking in the implant results in weird shit. Weird pumping, weird dog ears, weird shapes, weird sensitivity… it is all going to be weird for a while. It’s the right attitude to not freak out just because you are experiencing something new and different; it will likely change again shortly.

Eventually everything settles down and it all becomes a lot more predictable, your implant gets used to you and you get used to your implant. But you still have many shifting experiences to come over the next months.

This SAME SHIT happened to me with my LGX, so the problem spans all models. Yes, I contacted my doctor convinced it was something serious, but no; everything just takes time to limber up. Little tip: next time that happens, try little, tiny baby-pumps. That worked for me.
