the analogy I use for a tongue tie…………….
	Imagine high school gym class and it's time
	for the pesky President's Physical Fitness test.
	And just as you are about to set out to run the 
	track, your gym teacher says, wait !  And she 
	ties your sneakers together !!

	Sure you can still move, but it will take all of this period and
	most of the next just to make it around the track !
	And because its sooooo tiring to "shuffle" around the
	track you will stop often to rest and perhaps take a
	a nap or two.

I imagine that's what it must be like to breastfeed with a tongue tie.
