Should you have difficulty breastfeeding or suspect a tongue-tie in your newborn, please make contact with your nearest baby clinic for assistance. We believe that Tongue-tie division alone is not a ‘magic cure’ that may immediately end all your breastfeeding difficulties. It is important that all other issues affecting your breastfeeding have been addressed by an experienced Lactation Specialist before considering Tongue-tie division. If needed they can refer you to The Tongue-Tie Clinic for further management.
