He did a wonderful Job too.
Quoting jessicaaris:My cousin's son was born with a cleft pallet too, he had surgery when he was a baby. Besides a few speech issues when he was a little older (nothing major at all) he has had no problems. He is like 10 now.

A cleft palate is just a hole in the roof of the mouth, you wouldn't have been able to tell unless you looked inside of his mouth. He's had two surgeries to close it, both were before he was a year old.
Quoting jessicaaris:Really? I didn't know that. You can't tell at all (from pics anyway lol).
Quoting lauratupper:yay! my ds was born with a cleft palate.

just normal dental check ups, he does go twice a year to a cleft clinic, they track the progess of the surgeries (he had 2), and help with speech and such things.
