Thanks, Alison, for taking time to respond to some of my questions about frenulum issues. I guess someone is going to have to design some sort of longitudinal study comparing clipped and un-clipped controls to see how they do with early feeding, speech, and whether/when they ultimately get clipped. If someone with a background in designing such studies wants to do so, I can certainly share data -- even slides. Netters who are going to the Wolf and Glass conf. might want to ask them for an opinion. I'm working with Kay James, a speech path.from Houston who works with bfg babies (a rare find!) on an up-coming presentation, and I'm hoping to get her to speak to this issue.
