Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Anne, What link is there between palates and bed wetting?

Palmer gave a great session at ILCA in 2005 on Sleep Apnea that helped me put a lot of this together. If everyone was bottlefed without noticeable problems, they may not know if family members were tongue tied. > I saw one mother with several tongue-tied children but she was able to nurse them because her nipples were extremely long and areolas very elastic. Her six year old could stick his tongue out of his mouth, but the tip was rolled under and fastened to the floor of the mouth. > > Anne Grider > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
