I have a mom from my childbirth class, who is now back at work and still
nursing very well, who has a baby with a very large tongue.  This tongue is
always hanging out.  She said her Ped said it is of no concern what so ever.
The baby has been a champion nurser from the beginning.  The baby is around 6
mo old now.  I will be interested to hear from the Lactnuts as to whether
this typically presents a problem down the road.  Look at Mick Jagar, what a
tongue that guy has! (He is a rock and roller for those of you who don't
know!).  He seems to have done rather well with his large tongue!
