Hi. My ds1 is 5 weeks old and has eventually been diagnosed with a tongue tie. This has affected breastfeeding and I had to start topping up with formula a week ago as he still wasn't back to birth weight and had started to lose weight :( We got his tongue clipped privately by prof bruce at spires, hale, but it has made no difference to his ability to latch. We also went privately to milk matters in Huddersfield, who said the clip isn't complete and needs re-doing, but my DH didn't want them to do it as he prefers to go with a consultants opinion ("it may not help - doesn't need redoing"). Does anyone have any experience of either or these people/ places? Stupidly I cancelled my nhs appt at stepping hill as got a private appt quicker and was desperate as I want to keep breastfeeding. Wondering who's advice to go with now?
