  1. Good day to admin, I want to know if there is anything called tongue tie, cutting the beneath part of a baby’s. tongue that is not wide enough that it will affect the baby’s speech.

      This is a widely held belief about tongue-tie being a very common cause of speech delay in children and as a result many mothers are always going to cut the “tongue-tie”. However, tongue tie do not cause speech delay and most so called tongue tie is just the frenulum which is a thin membrane below the tongue and the floor of the mouth which will become smaller as the baby grows bigger. There is really no need to be cutting any tongue-tie.

      The danger is even higher with cutting tongue tie if it is not done in a sterile hygienic way, the baby can have tetanus and other complications.
