Hi,
Speaking from experience, I can tell you will probably need to get her speech therapy. I had to from the time I was--I guess, four until 14 or 15. It was a hassle but it was worth it. As one of the others said, she may have a nasal sound, I had a little bit. Get ready for a lot of doctor appointments and alot of trying to comfort her as she grows up. She will need all the support she can get while going through the different stages of getting everything repaired. For me, it took 23 years to get through all of the surgeries and dentist and speech therapists. I hope this helps a little.
Erin.
