As it happens, I just was referred a 2 day old baby today with Pierre
Robin Syndrome. She has a small chin, a cleft palate and a
posteriorly placed tongue. But damned if she didn't latch on first
try as if she had always done it. She needs to be supplemented for
the moment with a lactation aid, but she did quite well with it. Will
keep you posted.
