Sunryze,
What you're experiencing is normal. It's not unusual for a person to be able to feel their CI protrude a little bit. I've had my first CI for the past 4 years and I can still feel the small "bump" where my CI is located. As for the magnet, it will stay attached to your head. Your audi might have to give you a stronger magnet, but then again, he/she may not. If I remember correctly, magnet strengths come in 1 (weakest strength), 1 1/2, 2, 3, 4, 5 and (I believe -- if it hasn't been discontinued) 6 (strongest strength). I started off with a number 2 magnet, but later switched to a number 1. Hope this helps! Good luck at your activation on Thursday!
