random question about small babies

if you want to check if they have tongue tie and you stick your tongue out at them - what if they don't copy you? dd is 6 months now and i've never seen her stick her tongue out but then i can't remember if the ds's did either. it doesn't look like tongue tie apart from that but then how can i say if i never get to see it?
so if you have a small baby, do they/can they stick their tongues out past their lips?
more curious than worried it doesn't seem worth going to the gp over really, does it?

When they do stick their tongue out, it pulls in the middle to make a heart shape. TTs can be different degrees so some will be stuck fast and some will just be a little misshappen when stuck out. If it ain't broke, don't fix it is my mantra!

sorry should have said, she couldnt stick her tongue fully until she had it cut.
