Well, for us it was a blessing. My daughter destroyed my wife nipples, to the point she was unable to breastfeed due to pain. After the surgery my wife noticed

  We had this problem too, it wasn't a tongue tie, he just had trouble latching. A doctor looked under his lip and said its "borderline" whatever that means and set us up with a ENT specialist. We missed the appointment and I'm glad we did. Inflicting pain on your infant and modifying their body is not something to be taken lightly. I looked in there, it all looked pretty normal to me. She pumps and feeds him the milk from a bottle. It was a workable solution. He breastfeeds directly sometimes, he's used to the bottle so it's a little harder for him but it's fine, just a mild inconvenience. The positive out of this is that he never became a pacifier addict, he couldn't keep it in his mouth without assistance. I think probably it will have no impact on his life as he grows at all.

    It was really heavy from the point of view of pain indeed. In our case our daughter was identified as both having a tongue tie and a lip tie. I can't tell if it's true or not, but I can tell the surgery did save my wife connection with my child, after that they spent a lot of time together. The horrible part is having to rub on the wound for the next 2 weeks to prevent healing. I had to do that and it was devastating. Still worth though, both the my daughter and my wife were heaving serious problems due to this.
