Tongue tie? I helped a baby like this, he wasn't tongue tied, and he finally
got bfing at about 8 weeks. I saw the mom everyday for 24 days! He is still
going strong at the breast at 13 months. He has always been pretty grumpy
and anti-social. He never really did the sing-songy cooing, toe grabbing, or
easy laughing. He has gained well, is obviously very bright but it seems
like there is a missing link. It has been a very strange case and I wonder
what the future will tell us. Any LC's had a similar experience? His was a
very normal pregnancy, very healthy mom and dad and a wonderful homebirth.
