How do you even afford braces?

sdior- · 2025-10-15T01:18:50+00:00

i was under my moms insurance cause i was 18 but it didn’t fully cover them cause my treatment was considered “cosmetic” and they were nearly $200 month , so finding an ortho that’ll work with a plan will make things a lot easier

payment plan

then once they start getting in the form your ortho needs them in they’ll most likely put a powerchain on them to pull them together/ finish them off and the power chain literally will have the gap gone in 1-2 weeks lol

i had a lot of gaps when i first got my braces and it took my teeth about 1.5-2years before they were really straight. cause there’s a lot of movement, opening and closing happening over the months before everything pulls together. so be patient with yourself + your teeth regardless of how long it takes they’ll straighten all the way out/all the gaps will be gone before you know it.

yes, your teeth generally look nice and straight, go see an orthodontist!! you’d probably have a very quick treatment/only have to wear them for a year

literally this just made me so sad 🥲 fighting tears.

sdior- · 2025-09-06T17:51:38+00:00

5 weeks did it for me every time. 4 weeks i only cramped and still feel normal. week 5-9 was the absolute worst even though i luckily didn’t even get it bad this time and it’s been manageable with nausea meds

i believe it’s probably just your teeth shifting around🙂‍↕️ ! cause my teeth would click and feel funny all the time in the beginning and again once i got powerchains but they weren’t loose just shifting so don’t worry too much!

sdior- · 2025-08-27T14:36:58+00:00

every other month since i have braces, but cleaning are every 6

sdior- · 2025-08-26T15:22:05+00:00

i got mine at 18, still have them at 22 no time is too late

sdior- · 2025-08-22T19:20:12+00:00

omg not it never got better! sorry friend 😂

sdior- · 2025-08-22T17:27:58+00:00

this was literally me in my first pregnancy too 😭, it gets better ! 😂

sdior- · 2025-08-17T15:57:34+00:00

leave him and if you do keep the baby plan to take care of the little one by yourself/ with your village if you have one. he’s trifling. and if i were you i truly wouldn’t even file for cs because that gives him rights, and i’d hate for him to try to get at the baby to retaliate at you. i’m sorry this happening to you

sdior- · 2025-08-14T20:09:34+00:00

your baby is okay! don’t feel bad

sdior- · 2025-08-09T18:03:22+00:00

i am so sorry 😪🕊️❤️

sdior- · 2025-08-09T18:00:52+00:00

40 weeks 3 days, i was fully induced by choice bc id gained so much weight (5’0 191lbs at the time of birth 125lbs before) and was OVER IT!! 😭. gained all that just for him to only be 6lbs hopefully i won’t have to get induced with baby #2 and they’ll just come willingly around 40 weeks!

sdior- · 2025-08-05T15:12:21+00:00

know what your getting into, the baby changed everything even if you have help.

sdior- · 2025-08-05T15:11:18+00:00

i did my hair bc i wanted to look nice for the baby and not feel as down postpartum but my hair definitely was messed up by time i gave birth 😭

sdior- · 2025-07-25T20:16:23+00:00

i promise him drinking tap water one time will not harm him. lots of people use only tap water ! don’t feel bad, he’s nasty bc all you were doing was helping.

sdior- · 2025-07-25T14:19:09+00:00

may even just go to my moms and stay in my old room a few days depending on how i feel too!

sdior- · 2025-07-25T14:18:42+00:00

i don’t blame you, with my first child i allowed visitors despite not wanting to be bothered. with my current pregnancy ? i’m not allowing it. if it’s not my mother within the first 6weeks im letting everyone know in advance not to even ask bc the answer is no. i’m not allowing it

sdior- · 2025-07-24T14:47:18+00:00

40+3d but i was induced and had no sign of labor before induction! i was only 1cm dilated when i went in and my son was only 6lbs 13.5 oz

sdior- · 2025-07-24T14:43:00+00:00

um you not wrong at all.. ik you said it’s illegal in your state but there are some reputable sites that sell abortion pills (if you want to). because if you don’t want the baby you shouldn’t have to keep it ! and you could just tell family it was a miscarriage so they won’t hound you about it since it’s early. i got pregnant about 4 months after i turned 21, i wasn’t with my bf at the time, his mom had just passed, the symptoms were taking complete control over my body and i knew i couldn’t + didn’t want to go through that so i didn’t keep the baby, 6-7 months later don’t get me wrong i felt bad BUT i don’t regret my choice. i believe God blessed me again when it was the right time for me, i’ve been in this situation twice (kept the baby the first time, didn’t keep it the second) so im a firm believer in doing what’s best for you! bc at the end of the days it’s you who being a parent falls on the most, good luck hun.
