Jill and Bobby dive into a raw conversation about their challenges with feeding their son, Declan, and how they struggled to get the proper care and attention from medical professionals. They share their experience of advocating for their child when his tongue tie and lip tie went undiagnosed, leading to hours of frustrating and exhausting nursing sessions. This episode is a candid reflection on how trusting your instincts as a parent, even in the face of dismissal, is crucial for ensuring your child’s health and well-being.

In This Episode, You'll Learn:

Jill and Bobby reflect on the emotional rollercoaster of realizing their son’s feeding struggles were not normal and their journey to get the proper help. They discuss how the system sometimes fails new parents, but they also stress the power of persistence and seeking second opinions. Ultimately, they encourage parents to advocate for themselves and their children, knowing that their instincts can be the key to unlocking answers that the system may miss.
