Journey with braces and a palatal expander part 2

Hey guys! I'm sooo sorry I haven't updated my blog in a while. I was too lazy and busy revising, I have my progressive 2 next week! Stressed out! So today, I went to the ortho again to get my molar bands fitted in for my bottom set of teeth, and it hurts SO much cause when the ortho fitted it in, he made me bite on this metal stick thingy and the molar bands were kinda like hurting my gums! PAINFUL. He didn't put the molar bands for my upper set of teeth, the space wasn't big enough so he put spacers, AGAIN. Thank goodness it didn't hurt that much, unlike the first time I had the spacers. It's really annoying having the bands in your mouth. So next week, I'm going to the ortho to get my upper molar bands fitted in AND I'm getting my lower braces! I'm really excited AND nervous, cause next week is my exam, so wish me luck!
