Double uvula: you need to take to his doctor to make sure he doesn't have sub mucous cleft palate.

Not really: These kids usually have a bit of a separation in the back at the back of the bony palate. Hidden underneath the skin there is a V shaped notch pointed forward. It is associated with a higher number of middle ear infections during infancy/toddler years but is otherwise just a curiosity.It does have a distant genetic link to cleft palate.
