Rightt now the condition probably seems really scary but things will get better. I remember being told this and not believing it, it felt like one thing after the next. Try and talk to people that have children with prs for reassurance, get advice from your cleft team and try not to panic. The jaw comes forward the cleft can be fixed and by the time your child's 2 you won't see many differences with other children their age.

I cant give advice to babies haha, but advice to the parent would be, take it one day at a time and make sure you ask and write down all of your questions and talk to people who have also been in this situation on Facebook groups etc. It helps so much
