She has had surgery on September 1, 2005 to fix the cleft. She is in the process or teething and will not allow anything in her mouth to touch her top gums (This includes a bottle and sippy cup) I can only spoon feed her formula. Do you think teething is more painful for babies with clefts? Maybe the nerve ending on the top of the mouth are more sensitive than in other babies?

Gracie is working on her seventh tooth, but her top tooth is coming in sideways and I always wondered if this was causing more pain. We also have our first pediatric dental appt in November. Hoping Emily is doing better! I also wanted to thank you. Gracie is working on her seventh tooth, but her top tooth is coming in sideways and I always wondered if this was causing more pain.
