While intubation does deform the palate, it's not the deformed palate 
that causes the feeding problems, it's the illness that led to the need 
for intubation. I've seen many babies with channel palates from 
intubation, some breastfed well if they were over the initial insult, 
others did not if they were still struggling with neurological issues 
affecting muscle tone and coordination, respiratory issues, and/or stamina.
