Summary

The goal of this observational study is to examine how performed frenotomy in term-born infants influences the breastfeeding duration. The main questions the study aims to answer are how a suspected tongue-tie, vacuum strength, and breastfeeding may be associated. Families of infants with tongue-tie where frenotomy is suspected will be invited to participate. Intra-oral vacuum measurements before and 5-10 days after frenotomy will be obtained and the breastfeeding status followed for 6 months.
