Why Do Both Of The Twin Babies Suffer From Tongue Problems?

Hi Sir,
I have twin baby girls 10 month old. One baby is diagonised with toungue and doctor has advised us to go for release only if required and asked to wait till she start speaking. Now I suspect that second baby lack uvulva. I checked myself but couldn't find it. Does it have any effect in future? Will my baby be able to speak? I got concieved through IVF. No family history.Is there any reason that both have problem realated toungue. Please advice.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As with the tongue tie, you need worry about the uvula also, Uvula is an extra organ, so it has no purpose, if it is not there also, nothing will happen. Or it may grow latter.
The tongue tie also, if it is there also, there will be no problem . if the speech is very different, then only you may need to have a minor surgery.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
