Lip Tie ? This is definitely a lip tie right ? My hubby doesn't think it looks abnormal at all

I'm not expert at this... but being that my son had one (that got fixed) Yes it does look like a lip tie.

Your hubby is correct it's not abnormal we all have a lip tie to some extent.. some are just more severe than others

My lactation consultant said stick your tongue up into your upper teeth (between your lip and teeth) and see how far it can go.. it should go up pretty high.

She said something about the folic acid in our prenatals is what cause this in babies nowadays

Sorry I didn't mean abnormal but generally it shouldn't attach to the bottom of the guns like that. The issue lies in our latching issues during breastfeeding. He can't get a good auction at all.

Oh for sure it's a lip tie! My little guys looked like that! And your right it shouldn't connect all the way down. My baby's did and it caused painful latch and problems with his upper lip mobility. He would fall off the latch often. It can cause speech problems long term if it's a strong tie.

Based on your previous post, I would say it's a class three or four lip tie. My little guys went all the way down as yours did but he couldn't hold his lip back at all.

yep. that's a lip tie for sure.

Thanks ladies. I have an appointment Tuesday for a consultation with a paediatric dentist.
