Is Stammering In A Child Connected To Removal Of Adenoids And Fitted Gromets In Ears?

My 2yr old son had his tonils/adenoids removed and gromets fitted in his ears on 29 November, since his operation he has developed a stammer (to-to-to-tomorrow, wh-wh-wh-when etc.). He has also started waking in the night in tears, before his operation he slept through the night. Could these be connected to his surgery?
