The Recovery Process 🩹
After having our tongue ties revised in January, our healing journey took longer than expected (hello, endless winter illnesses! 🤧). Despite the setbacks, we kept up with our stretches, and I'm happy to report that at our last check-up, Brittany confirmed we're heading in the right direction!
What We're Working On Now 💪
We've officially moved into the strengthening phase! This includes:
- Daily tongue strengthening and stretching exercises
- And surprisingly... swallowing exercises!
That last one caught me off guard, but apparently, it's a crucial final step in the process. I'll be honest—these exercises feel challenging right now, but we're committed!
Looking Ahead 🗓️
We'll be heading back for another appointment in 4-6 weeks. The goal? Developing strong tongues that naturally rest on the roof of the mouth, which should help improve our breathing patterns. I can't wait to see what improvements we make!
