Braces On T

Braces 

On Thursday morning I got braces. On Thursday I ate all hard foods, but on Friday my braces started to hurt even more than they already hurt so I only ate soft food. I'm posting this on the Saturday after I got braces and it still kind of hurts to eat. It's not fun. :(

Who else has/had braces? Any advice for someone who just got braces (AKA me)?

 

Thanks everyone!

I only have one word: Tylenol. It will be my friend for the rest of my life!!!!! Also, eat soft food for the first week or so then go to eating more solid foods! It's as easy as that! I have had braces for 3 months now and they're fine. The third time I got it tightened It didn't hurt AT ALL! It was a lil sore afterwords but it was bearable. ;)

So how are you feeling now? What color do y'all have? I have had dark green, then turquoise now purple.

Thanks soooo much everyone!

My braces actually don't have color. I don't know why. XD

Another update (sorry for updating you so much!): I can eat Cheerios with my front teeth now, but not really baby carrots.

Aw, Moonlight!  I'm sorry to hear that, but remember it's not the end of the world. I've never had braces, but have had stitches on my lip. Praying!
