Samantha, Jackson had a small hole at his first op visit. It was where the hard and soft palate meet. At that time our PS suggested just keeping an eye on it, and on our last visit on August 2nd, it had closed on it's on. He did tell us that if it had not closed on it's own, he probably wouldn't have done anything about it until around age 2. That would give it extra time to close on its own. Dr. Grant said that they usually DO close on their own if they're small. I was SO thankful, because I just don't think I could have handled another surgery at this point. Maybe try and take a picture, and email to the PS. Good luck!
