He grew out of it! :happy: </p> <p>...and seeing baby Brady is big time amping up my baby fever! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-2217490 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 17:27:22 +0000 fuzzypeaches 2217490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: @Mrs. Jump Rope: @jojepie: thanks ladies! I keep googling "enlarged tongue" and freaking myself out lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-2217433 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 15:57:50 +0000 Mrs. Cheesecake 2217433@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS did this I think until his bottom teeth started coming in at 9 months. He is a little over two years now and hasn't done it in a long time. DD is currently doing this at 5.5 months. I'm not really worried about it since she is still able to nurse. I think it will resolve on its own. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-2217404 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 15:17:08 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 2217404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@fuzzypeaches: my youngest did this! I have ultrasound photos of her sticking her tongue out. I have no idea what caused it or why she did it, but she had her tongue out constantly. It eventually resolved itself on its on, and never caused any breastfeeding issues. She's almost 10 months old now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-2217398 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 15:05:45 +0000 rachiecakes 2217398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ra: aw, little J &amp; B! </p> <p>@fuzzypeaches: yep! I'd say around 5/6 months? I have a picture of him with the Easter bunny where he would've been around 4/5 months and that was the end of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-2217389 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 14:52:33 +0000 fuzzypeaches 2217389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hope no one minds if I bump this! My LO does this too and it stresses me out! (Google is a terrible thing) </p> <p>Did your LOs grow out of it??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-989804 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:16:10 +0000 Ra 989804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swurlygurl: That is exactly how Brady's looks. His is out like 75-80% of the time though. The doctor said that it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the tongue tie, but it could have been a factor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-989794 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:13:40 +0000 swurlygurl 989794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lyla did that for quite a while. It wasn't *all* the time, but it was a lot. I never really thought anything of it, and I think she stopped doing it around 10 weeks?<br /> I never had her checked for tongue tie though, so we could be having completely different scenarios</p> <p>*Picture at 6 weeks - I would say she kept her tongue out like this 50% of the time? </p> [attach=3446/13/mr2cyt.449x600.IMG_0391.JPG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-988952 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 21:15:14 +0000 avivoca 988952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine's still baking, but my friend's daughter did this. She did have a tongue/lip tie, it was resolved and she eventually grew out of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-988945 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 21:12:29 +0000 LaineysMom 988945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rahlyrah: DD did this for a little while too. I asked the ped and she said not to worry. Your LO is super cute! :)</p> <p>ETA: she doesn't do it nearly as much now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-988936 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 21:07:56 +0000 boiledpnut 988936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS did that until his bottom teeth came in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-988922 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 20:59:14 +0000 mrsbookworm 988922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO's tongue is also always sticking out. He's about the same age as your guy. I didn't think anything of it until now. He doesn't have any trouble nursing, though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-988804 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 19:52:56 +0000 Ra 988804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: Thanks for chiming in! I'm happy to hear that it could go away on its own. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-988365 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 13:07:12 +0000 rachiecakes 988365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS did this! He also has a lip/tongue tie (neither severe or preventing us from nursing). He just grew out of it. Maybe just more awareness/muscle control? People would comment on it in pictures. He stopped around 6 months, I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-988320 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 12:33:34 +0000 tysonja 988320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i don't have any experience, but just wanted to say he's adorable!! and the a+a print is super cute, too :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-tongue-is-always-outshould-i-be-concerned#post-988303 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 12:16:35 +0000 Ra 988303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>B's tongue is always out. Always. He can put it in his mouth but chooses not to. It is hanging out in every picture of him and people are constantly commenting on it.</p> <p>I asked his pediatrician about it at his 1 month appointment and she said we would just keep an eye on it. According to her, his tongue might be a little big but she didn't see anything else wrong anatomically. She also didn't think he had a tongue tie though, but I took him to an ENT anyway and he had both a tongue and lip tie, so I am not sure how familiar she really is with the anatomy of the mouth.</p> <p>I asked the ENT about it when B had his frenectomy and he said the frenectomy could resolve it. It has been a few weeks though with no change. </p> <p>Has anyone else's LO had this problem? Did they grow out of it or should I seek out another ENT for a second opinion? He has been doing it since he was born.</p> <p>[attach=2606/13/mr0nzo.450x600.tongue-brady.jpg] </p>
