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.
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.
