5 more months of waiting....
| Tue, 05-02-2006 - 8:34am |
Yesterday the dr. recommend we wait until Vinnie is 10-12 months of age to get his tongue snipped. There is no question, he said he needs to get it done because it will cause speech problems. They have to put him under to do the surgery, and at 5 months he is too young since he has no problems right now with his tongue, he eats fine and obviously can't talk yet. The dr. said when he starts finger food he is more prone to choke, and if this happens a lot, then to bring him in and he can get it done sooner. Im relieved I finally have an answer!:)

Hope the time comes and it goes well for you both.
Kate, glad you have a date now and the
I'm glad he is ok right now and I hope the time flies by for you!
I'm glad things seem more settled for you. I'm so sorry he even has to go through this, but I'm sure he'll be fine. The surgery will probably be easier on both of you when he's a little older, and it will be over & in the past before you know it.
