Can anyone talk to me about forked tongues? Just discovered that dc has one- not noticeable unless sticking out the tongue. As an infant, the location consultant said dc was slightly tongue tied, so it might have something to do with that. Also DC seems to have trouble chewing and dislikes eating, and takes forever to eat. Also almost chokes on food at least once a day.

Is this something that should be addressed?

Ask your pediatrician and/or make an appt with an ent if it’s causing issues.

+1. Sounds like it IS causing issues, definitely something I would get evaluated by an ENT.

Maybe also an OT to look at chewing and swallowing
