How is your invisalign going?

I started my invisalign today. I got my first trays in and I had 8 attachments put in, I feel like that seems like a lot. Do you think so?
I had braces about seven years ago and have slight crowding in my lower teeth. This is why I chose invisalign. My dentist said that my invisalign is "invisalign express" when I first went in for my consultation she said 4-6 months. I am now on 1 of 13 trays so that means I will have invisalign for about 6.5 months. I was expecting less because I have minimal work to be done, I was also surprised on how many attachments I received today since my teeth are not very crooked. My problem area is my lower but i received 4 attachments on top and 4 on bottom. The top attachments are on my bicuspids and it is making me feel insecure, it feels weird and looks like my teeth are abnormal. Anyone else have this problem?
