So I found out my daughter has an upper lip tie. Did or does any of your babies or children ever have one? Did you get it snipped? Her pediatrician recommended I get it done due to having troubles with breastfeeding and it effecting her speech when she’s older. I’m just nervous 😟
@addysmama81715, lactation consultant! I haven’t but I think I’m going to. Thank you!
Yes! Haha lactation consultant! Totally worth talking to one, they are at my daughters pediatrician office.
@lanesevalencia, have you seen... I forget what they’re called, a nurse about breastfeeding? It took me a bit it help her latch, we used a nipple shield for a couple days till we both got the hang of it. If it just seems like she’s nursing often she maybe be in a growth spurt, cluster feeding is hard but I don’t remember when that starts... sorry if that doesn’t help.
@lanesevalencia my 8 month old has one I decided not to get it clipped because her doctor said as long as she's eating she was fine but that if when she gets older & we decide its causing issues we could get it done then.
@amouryaya09, so even after you got it clipped it, he still has the speech effect?
Yes 😔. I know a lot of women are able to push through with breastfeeding if their child is tongue or lip tied. You could get a second opinion. His old pediatrician said the same thing.
@addysmama81715, she can nurse but I don’t think she’s getting everything, she seems to never be satisfied after feedings, and when I pump I’m getting 4 oz so I’m not sure if that is causing a poor latch causing her to not get all of the milk out
My sister has one, my mom plans on cutting it in a year or so
My son was tongue tied and we got him clipped at 3 weeks old. I had trouble with breastfeeding even after and he has a small speech problem. Idk if it made a huge difference.
My middle child has one and I never got it clipped she’s 7 and has had no issues. Breastfeeding was a bit painful in the beginning but that only lasted a few weeks.
My daughter has an upper lip tie and we didn’t do anything with it. Her pediatrician said that as long as she can nurse she’s ok 👍
@mommy_x3, do they have any speech or gaps between their teeth? I am leaning towards not getting it done but nervous my breastfeeding will not improve due to it
My oldest was speech delayed but they said it was due to him having autism.. My other 2 are too young to really tell but the baby does have a gap between her 2 front teeth
All three of my kids have them and we never got theirs cut or anything
So idk if I’m an asshole for thinking this but a girl I used to go to school with is having her 3rd kid and she’s planning a baby shower and she had one with her other two. I feel like a baby shower is something you do with ur first pregnancy. I live far from my family so I didn’t have one but i did have a baby registry and I’m not even doing that with this pregnancy. Idk I just feel like 3 baby showers is a lot! Especially when she gets things handed to her. Idk maybe I’m an ass for thinking that

The best thing about having a Daughter is that I get to play with her hair when I'm bored lol 😍🙈☺️👯💅🏻💄 #my5yearold #Malaniairie
Dad's FB Video!!
Did anyone see that video a dad posted on his daughters FB page? He saw a post she made where she bashed her parents and cursed them, called them lazy and told them they should pay her for stuff she did around the house... So he called her out on it and put the video on her page!! Sorry if I missed a post already about this already, but I just saw the video and IT WAS AWESOME!!! Hahahhaa!
Just curious..
When did you ladies first have sex? I had just turned 18 when I did.
My two youngest had upper lip ties. My 4 yr old we didn’t revise because he couldn’t bf for one reasons. My two year old had a tongue tie also so we had the tongue tie revised. The ENT said there’s contradictory information about clipping so we left it to see if the just the tongue tie was the issue and it was. He ended up ripping his on his own at about 13 months. So. Much. Blood 😮 but many kids do.
I highly recommend an IBCLC to see if it needs to be revised.
