Mine has a tongue tie and I didn’t cut. It was difficult at first to breastfeed but now he it’s easy
Mine had a lot tie it wound up resolving itself but made breastfeeding really hard
Yes we just got our baby’s lip tie lasered last month, it’s really no big deal. It the baby is losing weight, insurance might cover it
Lip ties should resolve themselves as their mouth grows. Did the consultant not give you exercises to do to stretch it out a bit? Fixing a lip tie only helps breastfeeding like less than 10% of cases so we didn’t do it…one tongue tie can be different. This was my baby’s issue but at 3 months she’s been breastfeeding and gaining weight just fine.
@Daniela, we went to the ENT clinic at Children's Hospital, and between his huge drop in weight and how tight his upper lip is, it was advised to get it released. The lactation specialist also recommended it as he cannot do the exercises to stretch it because it's too tight.
My daughter has a tongue tie.and she just.had hers cut
