Скачать или смотреть Conflicting Advice and the Truth About Tongue Ties with Melissa Cole

If you've ever felt confused, dismissed, or completely overwhelmed trying to navigate a tongue tie diagnosis — this episode is for you.



I sat down with Melissa Cole, MS, IBCLC, PMH-C, and founder of Luna Lactation and Wellness, to have one of the most honest and nuanced conversations I've heard on this topic. Melissa brings over two decades of clinical experience, published research, and a deeply mindful approach to infant feeding that I think every parent and provider needs to hear.



We cover what a tongue tie actually is and why it happens, why families are getting such wildly different answers from different providers, and what a truly personalized approach to assessment and aftercare actually looks like in practice. We also talk about the emotional toll that feeding challenges take on the whole family.



This conversation will give you clarity, validation, and a much better sense of what questions to ask and what red flags to watch for.
