You may want to contact the  Cleft Palate Foundation, in the US:
1-800-24-CLEFT, email:  [log in to unmask], website:  www.cleft.com

My friend's baby has a full, deep cleft palate and a cleft lip (never picked
up on ultrasound, of which she had many for 20 wk loss of twin, etc).  She is
mostly breastmilk feeding him with specially made bottles - he has *no*
suction now at all - which the Cleft Palate Foundation helped her to locate.

Also, the Breastfeeding Answer Book has a good section on bf a baby with a
cleft.

HOpe this helps.
