Can i wear my retainers only at nights?

Q. I just got my retainers and its really geting hard to ge used to especially with my tongue being placed between the retainers and was wondering if it could be possible just to wear the retainers at night instead of day and night, My othrodontist told me to wear it for 6 months, i actually went by 1 month without wearing the retainers due to the delay of my appointment and my teeth haven’t moved at all? is it possible to wear it just for nights?

A. It may be possible but pleae discuss this with your orthodontist as a relapse at this stage would be a dreadful pity
