While there are plenty of helpful resources out there, you\u2019ll find just as many offering misinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you might have heard this one before: \u201cBreastfeeding is always painful! It\u2019s just part of the process.\u201d People often use this as a way to shame young mothers for complaining, when in reality some very real concerns could lie at the center of their frustrations. Here\u2019s the truth about pain during breastfeeding, what you should be expecting, and what could lie at the center of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where the Frustration Lies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Often, young parents are told that babies feed instinctively, and that every aspect of it should be easy. While this is true, it doesn\u2019t always feel that way. Mothers can sometimes feel a fair amount of pain while breastfeeding, or find that their child has trouble latching at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When they bring up these concerns, parents are often met will all kinds of excuses: \u201cA little pain is normal,\u201d \u201cYour baby is just a lazy eater,\u201d or even \u201cYour nipples just need to toughen up.\u201d These aren\u2019t helpful, but more than that, they actively harmful; they ignore the real issue at the heart of many of these complaints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tongue Ties and Breastfeeding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In most cases, breastfeeding really should be easy. In fact, when it\u2019s not, it\u2019s often because the child is suffering from a tongue or lip tie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone has a small piece of connective tissue between their lips and gums, and one under their tongue. This is called a frenulum, and you can probably feel yours in your mouth right now. In some children the frenulum is thicker than it ought to be, which restricts the motion of the lips and tongue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can imagine, this can impair the child\u2019s ability to latch properly. To compensate children can suck excessively hard, causing pain and even bleeding on the part of the mother. Sound familiar?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dealing with a Lip or Tongue Tie<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Thankfully, the treatment is simple. A dentist can painlessly trim the frenulum, a process called a frenectomy. It\u2019s quick, easy, and has no negative impact on the child\u2019s long-term development. And if a tongue tie is responsible for their problem with feeding, these issues should subside quickly after the procedure is complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Our Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We know that as a family dental practice, we\u2019ll have to earn your trust before you feel comfortable bringing your children to see us.
