DS3 had a posterior TT snipped at 10 weeks. He also has a very severe upper lip tie, that I am trying to get the medical profession to sort out. (Can't afford to go private).
I can't give him ANYTHING from a bottle, as the teat collapses in, falls in the bottle, and drenches him. A beaker he just can't get a grip onto to suck from.
He has BIG problems with solid food. He chokes on his food, struggles with chewing, needs his food chopped to morsels small enough to swallow without chewing. He has dropped in weight by more than a centile line in the last 8-12 weeks.
Could this be connected to the upper lip tie? DS3 is 51 weeks old now, and I have been trying to get an appointment with the local consultant to even LOOK at the upper lip tie since he was 16 weeks old. The HV has sent two referrals, the BF counsellor has sent one, and the GP has sent a referral. The HV has also said she will chase up an appointment.
It is also affecting his speech, and he dribbles terribly. Even when he's not teething. Pools of it, like a St. Bernard.

I'm tired of BF. I'm tired of being unable to EVER get more than 1.5hrs break at a time. Is this fixable when the NHS won't take me seriously, and I can't afford to go private? Is the upper lip tie the reason for him not putting any weight on and choking on his solid food if it is bigger than 3mm square cubes?
By this age, I could happily give 2/3 of my older dc a sandwich and they would happily much it. (The other had UNDIAGNOSED TT, and I was still spoon-feeding him milk until 15 months when he could manage a bottle. It was put down to his totally unrelated muscle problems/disablity).
Even with a banana - I have to pick off tiny bits to put in DS3's mouth, he can't even manage a slice of banana without choking. And I hadn't linked it to the upper lip tie because it seemed 'normal' to me after my experiences with DS2.
