Yes Barbara! I have definitely seen the tongue shortened and thickened and
apparently almost glued to the roof of the mouth in the "hungry" baby (e g
Day 3 postpartum and still not breastfeeding/latching at all). And then a
day or so later (after sufficient EBM to normalize urine output) the tongue
comes down and the baby goes on to the breast like a dream. I'm sure you're
right. How clever of you to find a reference to a latching difficulty in
the bible!
