Has anyone ever heard of waiting to do a tongue tie because the baby
will be at risk of becoming dehydrated?

Baby was fully bottlefed with mom pumping and supplementing. Baby is
tongue-tied as well as having a tight labial frenulum. Dr. wants to
wait until baby is a few months old to correct.

I took Catherine Watson Genna's online class last week and nothing was
mentioned about dehydration as a reason not to correct!
