“Why Is It Difficult for Ito-chan to Drink Milk?”

Ito-chan was born with spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita (SEDC) and also has a cleft palate.

In this article, we explain why feeding can be difficult for babies with a cleft palate, how nasogastric (NG) tube feeding works, and what our family has experienced along the way.

From frequent milk regurgitation to the small but meaningful improvements in her daily life, we share both medical information and our personal journey.

We hope this article offers understanding and encouragement to families facing similar challenges.
