How can one know that one's child has tongue-tie. Won't the baby cry or what thanks

Due to many mums complaints and anxiety over tongue-tie, many charlatans often offer to do the surgery and often create more problems for the baby including bleeding, infections e.t.c. Please make sure only the professionals see your baby and if the doctors say don't worry, don't go behind to meet charlatans to do it. Some hospitals also take undue advantage of some unsuspecting mums by doing the surgery unnecessarily just to make money off them.

Best Answer

You will know if the baby is able to lift the tongue up when crying.....just check the position of the tongue and under if there is anything keeping the tongue glued to the floor of the mouth......if you are not sure, get a doctor to check for you"
