Person with cleft lip and palate now having kids
![Post Post](./styles/prosilver/imageset/icon_post_target.gif)
Hello, my name is Jen and I am 22 years old. I was born with a unilateral cleft lip and palate. I have had several revisions done and my lip looks far better than it did when I was in grade school, but like a lot of people who are affected by this, I still have very low self-esteem. My parents were wonderful and very crucial to what confidence I do have. My husband is amazing and has always been proud of me for all that I went through. I am currently pregnant with my first child. At 20 weeks we had a Level II Ultrasound and it showed some questions so we are having a repeat one in 3 weeks. I am struggling with how to deal with the blame aspect of this problem. I can't stop myself from thinking that this is my fault and that my daughter will have to suffer all of the things that I did. Please give me some advice on this.
