This is directed to the LC who was looking for information on feeding an
infant with a cleft lip and palate (sorry I am too fast with the delete key).
A friend of mine is both nursing a baby and bottlefeeding breastmilk (and
formula when the pumped milk has run out).  The baby is now three weeks old.
My friend has gotten lots of great info from the Cleft Palate Foundation.
They can be reached in the US:  1-800-24-CLEFT; or via email:
[log in to unmask] and website: www.cleft.com.
  BTW, both the mom's baby and the doctor's baby are very supportive (in word
and deed) that the mom should breastfeed or breastmilk feed as much as she
possibly can, to reduce the risks to the baby of ear infection, etc.

Hope that this helps and is not a dollar short and a day late :-)
