Getting used to a retainer

[beachbum]

Hi guys. I'm had my braces removed on Tuesday (yay!). I have been wearing my retainers but I think I may never get used to talking with them in. I sound terrible.
Do you really get used to talking with your retainers in and eventually sound normal?
Thanks.

It took me about week to get used to my retainer. After that, my speech improved to "normal" levels. Hang in there.
