Hi. Tongue and lip tie removals are planned according to the class they fall under. As per the provided categorisation, the surgeon has planned the surgery appropriately as the baby's speech and swallow patterns will best be established only when the procedure is performed ASAP. So I request you not to delay the process by another year. In contrast to your fears, the removal of the ties could actually facilitate bottle feeding for the child. Rather than speculating on the effect of bottle feeding on the ties, the ties are already existing in the oral cavity of the child and are only complicating any activity associated with the mouth for the child. Hence, I would suggest you to proceed with the surgery now in the interest of the child.
