Anyone's baby have an upper tongue tie? How did it impact nursing? Eating solids? Did you have it snipped? Thanks!

    E has a bit of an upper tie. The pedi said it may cause a gap between her front teeth but that it's not worth it to snip. So we didn't. However I do think that's why she had such a bad latch at first, very shallow. It finally got better around 6 weeks. No

    My LO has this. It didn't cause any feeding problems, he nurses beautifully! I was concerned about the lip tie from googling it but pedi assured me that he should be fine. Pedi also said that they no longer advise clipping it. He said its best to leave it

    My LO has an upper  lip tie. We were told by 2 LCs and our pedi that it shouldn't really affect nursing. However, we then saw an ENT and she told us that it can definitely affect nursing/make it more painful for mom/affect latch. We didn't see the EN
