Is this lip tie?!

Question

Is this lip tie? I think that's the name...🤷 If so, will it cause issues of any sort? I don't want to get it snipped if it doesn't have to be... Shes almost two.

Answer

I don't know, but if it hasn't caused any issues (like with breast feeding or bottle feeding), they won't do anything about it. And especially now as your kid is almost 2, it's doubtful they would. My daughter's looked liked that too, but her pediatrician told me it wasn't a concern or a lip tie. She did say that most kids end up breaking it on their own by a fall. And well, that did happen just after my daughter turned 2. She fell pretty hard while I was in another room, and she was bleeding pretty good. But it broke. She's OK now though. No issues.
