Hi! My son is 5.5 months old, he is exclusively breast fed (and won’t take a bottle - but that’s another issue!). He was diagnosed with ‘flexible’ tongue tie when he was a few days old, but as we had no problems feeding they didn’t do anything about it. He is quite obviously tongue tied though, as you can see it so clearly. He also suffered badly with reflux as a newborn and it only really settled at around a month ago. Another thing to add is he always sleeps with his mouth open and very lightly. Anyway, we have started to think about weaning and have tried him with a few different things. We have tried both whole veg and homemade purees, after every thing he has tried (tried about 5 times over the last week) he has seemed so keen but then is very very sick of anything goes down at all. I have only just read about it possibly being a link to tongue tie (as well as realising his reflux was probably due to tongue tie too!). When I rang the health visitor, she absolutely wanted nothing to do with it and was very dismissive as he isn’t 6 months yet: (he is 6 months in 2 weeks). I know this is technically true but how much can change in 2 weeks? I just wanted to see if anyone else has had this experience and if I should look into getting it cut? Or if it’s too late and will be too traumatic / painful for him now he’s bigger? I very much doubt I will get an appointment with the nhs but happy to go private if it means he won’t struggle later on in life with eating / speech etc. let me know if you have any thoughts or experiences? Thanks !
