Infant Series: Tongue Ties and Feeding Concerns


Listen Later

Tongue ties are a complex subject, which can be challenging for families to navigate. On this episode of the infant series in Young & Healthy, we sit down with pediatrician, Dr. Jenny McAllister, and speech language pathologist, Marsha Lee Watson, to learn about tongue ties in babies and older kids. Join us as we explore common types of restrictive tissues, first feeding challenges, and the impact tongue ties can have on swallowing. We'll discuss signs for parents to watch for, breastfeeding pain, and when to seek help. Dr. McAllister shares how she and other experts at Cincinnati Children’s are working to identify tongue ties earlier, treatment options like frenotomies, and long-term feeding issues that can arise in older children. Tune in for valuable guidance and insights on navigating these challenges with your child's care team.
