Most likely they will miss it on an ultrasound. We had a daughter with PRS and were surprised. So when we were pregnant with my son, we had a High Resolution ultra sound done and they STILL missed it. They said everthing was fine. Well, my son was born with PRS too. They cannot see the palate on an ultrasound so unless the chin is extremely receeded, they will miss it. If you really want to know, get an in utero MRI done which will show the palate. Otherwise, just pick a hospital with a NICU just in case you need it and hop for the best. Whatever will be will be.
