Hey Anie. Don't be frightened. I'm a grandma of a baby with PRS. Our surgery is in 2 weeks...she'll be 9 months. It's to my understanding that the tubes are going to be placed at that time. We've been very lucky not to have a single ear infection since birth! She does have fluid in her ears, thus the placement of the tubes. I guess thats the norm for PRS babies. Hope your boy's palate repair goes well, I'm sure it will. Email me and let me know!
