This review highlights the importance of postoperative feeding in the recovery of infants with cleft lip/palate. Evidence suggests that breastfeeding may offer advantages in terms of weight gain and reduced hospital stay, while potentially minimizing the need for postoperative analgesia. The limited number of studies and variability in their outcomes underscore the need for further research to establish evidence-based guidelines for postoperative feeding.
