Bracesshop expander arrived!

So my braces shop expander has come to America! For 150 they did
a really good job, but I find it's just a tad loose. Will that
effect my expanding? No local orthos will adjust it just because
they didn't make it...p00ns.
Also, I've dropped in Mewing a bit and it feels like my progress
is worse than before. Could just be awareness. Does anyone have
some before and after??

Awesome news. They said they shipped my impression kit
yesterday. How long ago did you get that message? I'm also in
the Americas
As for being loose, do you mean against the teeth or against the
palate? Because that's a big difference. If it's loose against
both, I suppose you just need to expand it a bit before putting
it in. If your impressions were accurate, the expander being
loose could mean that your tongue posture actually expanded your
palate a little bit in the weeks between making the impression
and receiving the device.
The mewing feeling less effective, in my opinion, means that
your body is now calling for your to change where you are
applying pressure. You can feel around with your tongue what
works, push like that for a long while, and eventually your body
will start asking for pressure somewhere else. In a 100%
developed palate/maxilla, there is a proper tongue posture. In a
poorly/underdeveloped one, there is no proper tongue posture:
Only various different postures which will slowly shape it into
the proper position where you can hold a resting tongue posture
indefinitely.
Make sure your head posture is correct too though, the position
of your skull can produce like 95% of the force of mewing.

It just slid off my back teeth a little. Mostly it's doing a
fine job!! So you don't think having the tongue on the roof is
enough? It needs to be more specific mixes of postures? What's
your method? you sound like you've been at this research for a
while. :)

The regular active piece. It was the most simplistic one without
the Y expansion:)

Sorry I forgot to respond to your question! After they sent the
kit it took a week to get and a week to get back to them! They
practically sent my finished product as soon as they got them! A
three week process. All together.
