Petition Details

Get babies who are born tongue tied cut before they are discharged from hospital
After 6 months of my baby chocking I’ve finally managed to get his tongue tie cut, consultant said he was one of the oldest he’s done !!!

Additional Information

Hospitals say unless it’s a problem they won’t cut babies tongue at birth, my son chocked in his feed everyday for the last 6 months and health visitor and doctors wrote to the ENT consultant to get it done. I took it upon myself to phone the ent every other day until I got an appointment.
Babies and families should not suffer like this it’s a horrible ordeal to see your baby chock to the point there eyes roll into their heads
Tongues should be cut at birth before discharged home
