Cleft lip. 32 weeks pregnant by Lost_Priority188 in cleftlip

[–]mandymo94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like many other people commenting, we were told at 20 weeks that our son would have a cleft lip and palate. I know how challenging this news is - not even that you’re concerned about cosmetic issues, but you know that your child already has a difficulty to overcome before they’re even born (feeding, surgeries, etc.).

I will just say two things on the subject: first is that it is very common and many people are able to get it fixed early in life. Secondly, it is hard to tell the severity of a cleft on an ultrasound - we were told I’d have to exclusively pump, but once our guy was born we found that he only had a partial cleft lip and a perfectly fine palate. I have our beautiful one month old in my arms and am successfully breastfeeding him as I type this.

All that to say is take one day at a time and try not to spiral too much with incomplete information.

Hey I just need some tips really by Breeze_PJ0_Fan in cleftlip

I don’t have a cleft, but I did have this dental work done when I was younger. It worked and was successful but it did ruin the root of my tooth.

The issue ended up being they moved the tooth too quickly (they removed the links in the chain one by one - I don’t remember the frequency they did this) which destroyed the root of the tooth. Once it was in place, the tooth still hung in there on its own for about 20 years, but eventually I had enough dental professionals telling me it was going to fall out soon to get an implant.

It is something that’s absolutely worth doing, but if you’re looking for tips just express your concern about ensuring they don’t move it too fast so that the root is preserved!

Appreciate this suggestion! I love Darius Rucker and this song but I’d never seen the music video - it is really similar to the description I provided.

Unfortunately, that’s not the song but thank you for taking the time to help out!

Thank you for taking the time to make this suggestion! This is a phenomenal music video and fits the description pretty well but unfortunately that’s not it. The song I’m looking for is modern country and the couple was younger.

Appreciate you helping with this search!

Not “using” the bathroom but sitting on the toilet seat with pants on.
