Ahhh, with these extended chords, it can get tricky. There's not much to say, except that it just takes a bit of time and practice. I know that's not a very satisfying answer, but that's how it goes.

In terms of your wrist, you have to be sure you keep your wrist straight. Let your fingers hold the fret, not your wrist. If you keep playing with a wrist that's twisted, it will cause injury in the long run, and also develop a bad habit. It's important to play comfortably, and to take challenging chords or notes, and practice slowly. But you must practice correctly, and that means don't twist your wrist!
