Hello ladies, my son will be three weeks old this thursday and he is VERY tongue tied. Because of this i am not bfing, but pumping. I also worry about speech problems and trouble eating when food is introduced. I have done much research and would like to get it clipped to avoid future problems and to hopefully breast feed. Does anyone have any experience with this and know if medicaid will cover it? And who exactly does the procedure. I've read that pediatrician sometimes do it, or you may be referred to ENT, or pediatric dentist.

My lo is tounge tied also and we have medicaid. Our pedi reffered her to a pediatric ENT and we have an appointment next week. It is covered because it's considered medically necessary.
