Tongue Ties

“About 10 percent of babies (mostly boys) are born with a tongue-tie, called ankyloglossia in

medical terms. Some of these babies might find it harder to latch on or suck in a coordinated

way during breastfeeding. However, other newborns with tongue-tie may have no problems

breastfeeding.’

Here are two links with good information about the topic. Contact Dr Taljaard for sound,

medical and objective advice.
