Feeding post lip repair.

Instructions on how to feed your baby after a cleft repair can differ from doctor to doctor.  Lam Lai Kun's aftercare instructions include no bottle for 2-3 weeks.  Thankfully Ultan has taken to these pigeon bottles with syringe teat!

Day 6 and Ultan is eating approx 50% of what he was pre lip repair.  I don't think I would feel like eating either if I had a 3 hour surgery on my mouth!

Cocktails are optional but highly recommended ;)
