Thinking about a tongue tie release for your baby — but not sure if it’s actually necessary?

In this episode, I’m joined by occupational therapist Kelsey Swope, owner of Baby Basics OT, to break down what parents should really know about tongue ties.

We talk about feeding challenges, reflux, body tension, baby milestones, and why the common advice to “wait and see” can sometimes leave families stuck and struggling longer than necessary.

If you’ve been feeling like something is "off" — or just want to better understand what your baby may be communicating through their body — this episode is for you.
