The ideal time for tongue tie surgery, or frenotomy, in babies is generally recommended within the first few months, often during the first month of life. While some healthcare providers may prefer a "wait-and-see" approach, especially if the tongue tie is mild, early intervention can be beneficial for some babies, particularly if they are experiencing breastfeeding difficulties

I'm really worried about my 7-month-old baby. I was giving her enterogermina oral suspension, and some of the drops accidentally got into her eyes. We quickly washed her eyes with water, but I'm still concerned. Is that going to be okay, or could it cause any harm?
