If the tongue below the tongue is too short, the tongue cannot move properly. The tip of the tongue is typically retracted, and the baby cannot stretch it for long.
During breastfeeding, this little lateness can obstruct the nipple release. As a result, your baby may not get enough milk, or cause pain in the first few days due to poor breastfeeding.Short tongues occur infrequently in infants, but in some cases they are a barrier to breastfeeding and can sometimes make speech difficult. The tongue can be examined by a pediatrician or otolaryngologist if it proves necessary - the sooner the better. The operation takes just a few seconds, hardly any blood, and the baby is forgotten in an instant. If the tongue is not only short but also thick, it may require more serious intervention. However, this is very rare.
