If something feels off in your baby's feeding, sleeping, or mood, trust that feeling—this episode is for you.

Dr. Saadia invites you into a compassionate and eye-opening conversation about the often-hidden physical restrictions that can quietly disrupt your child’s growth, comfort, and connection with you. You’ll learn how subtle signs, often brushed off in early checkups, can carry profound meaning—and how gentle, informed intervention can create space for healing on every level. This isn’t just about solving a physical issue—it’s about reclaiming your intuition as a parent and finding alignment in the earliest stages of your child’s life. 

Tune in if you're ready to move from confusion and stress to clarity and empowered care.

In this episode, Dr. Saadia discusses:

• How oral restrictions in infants influence overall development and well-being
• Exploring the process and benefits of laser frenectomy in pediatric care
• Recognizing subtle symptoms that may signal deeper feeding or breathing issues
• Emotional and physical transformation for both baby and parent after intervention

Key Takeaways:

• A laser frenectomy takes less than a minute and, when done with precision and intention, promotes faster and gentler healing than traditional surgical methods.
• Common signs like tongue clicking, reflux, chronic gassiness, or falling asleep while feeding often point to tongue or lip ties that interfere with proper latch and growth.
• Many mothers experience deep emotional release and immediate bonding post-procedure, often realizing the breastfeeding challenges were never due to personal failure.
• Success after a frenectomy relies on consistent post-surgical oral stretches to prevent tissue reattachment, with most babies showing noticeable improvements within days. 

"The tongue, a small, often overlooked organ, may be holding you and your child's ability back to feed, to breathe, to sleep and to connect." — Dr. Saadia
