For the first few weeks after surgery, my nipples and scars were scabbing like crazy. 

I was so worried about the scabbing around my nipples, I must have called my doctors once a day! 

But every single time that I called them, they told me that it was normal. I would still recommend calling your doctor if you think something looks or feels wrong and I certainly am not able to give ANY medical advice... but **generally** scabbing is normal as you can see in the photo of me below!!  (That is ALL scabbing and no nipple)
