Question:
Answers:
It sounds to me more like you may have a palatal expander -- even if it's a regular retainer, however, the best thing you can do is keep wearing it. The more you do those things that seem awkward now, the sooner that you will get used to and accustomer to functioning with it in your mouth! If it bothers you because it is painful or pinching, then call your dentist/orthodontist and tell them and they should be able to smooth whatever is giving you the discomfort!
Other Answers:
Give it a few days and you will get used to it and be able to talk normally.
