Explanation:

Roof of the mouth is called palate. It forms between sixth and ninth weeks of pregnancy. In cleft palate the tissue forming the roof of the mouth does not completely join leading to a split or opening in the roof between the mouth and the nose. It is difficult to feed infants with cleft palate because they need to put more energy to create the suction to take in milk and the milk can also go into the nose area. Some methods to promote oral intake in an infant with cleft palate are:

Use a specialized cleft palate bottleFeed the baby in upright position so that the milk does not flow back into the noseBurp the baby often because he or she will take in more air while feeding.
