Had a very difficult start to breastfeeding, was agony for weeks and weeks. MW checked for tongue-tie at the time and said it was fine and that I just had delicate skin and it would get better. Which it did. Baby is now nearly 9months and have had no probs with feeding since about 2.5 months old.
But something, don't know what, made me think of lip tie today and I just looked and think she has it. It would explain the difficulty feeding in the early days. Why didn't I get a second opinion at the start?
I'm now panicking as she's starting teething and I'm worried about it affecting her top teeth. I'm kicking myself for not noticing sooner :(
What do I do? GP? Is it going to be horrible for her having it snipped? I feel so awful :(

I've just noticed that my 9mo has lip tie, any experience?
