I personally had no issue I had my baby’s cut best decision I ever made

Your situation sounds exactly like mine was. I booked a home visit with a specialist who I ended up seeing 3 more times whilst we spent a few weeks working on oral exercises. These were important to carry out every single day but took only a couple of minutes. Everything improved and I didn’t cut the tongue tie. successfully bf now at 8 months with improvement on the dripping, spit up, and gas. I’d recommend trying oral exercises first in case cutting isn’t necessary for you too

We had a tongue tie but it was very at the tip if his tongue. So at 4 weeks we cut it and he didn't needed to relearning the latch as he made it quite good after that. Gained weight properly. Now he is 11 months old

We had our baby evaluated today by his pediatrician. Our nurse in the hospital mentioned it looked like he had a tongue tie, which wasn’t surprising as my husband had it, but he was latching and feeding so well that she said we could probably ignore it. Well fast forward to him being 10 days old and now he spits up constantly, occasionally clicks while feeding, has awful reflux, and can only feed for short sessions because he chokes. Our pediatrician says he has a pretty severe tongue tie AND a lip tie. His procedure is already scheduled for this coming Tuesday and I’m so excited for his life to be easier.

I have friends who didn't have tongue tie cut - either because it wasn't identified or because they didn't want to have the procedure done but it then went on to impact the child's speech when they were older. For one this meant a cut at toddler stage which is much more traumatic
