club foot
I am 23 years old and have asked in my age group to talk with someone else whos baby has been diagnosed with club foot, but no luck. Just wondering if anyone here is going through what I am?
My niece is a twin. Hers forms because of positioning in womb. She had a brace for a bit, PT and OT. She's quite a fantastic soccer player now.
I am 29 weeks & my baby has a club foot. I know it can be fixed. My friends little boy had 2 surgery & wore the shoe & brace on his foot day & night for a while, he is 7 months old now & it is 100% fixed now.
@DADAT47 I saw a pediatric orthopedic specialist, not sure about the other stuff. They just asked me if it ran in either of our families.
@wayfunmommy Did she have to wear shoes every time she sleeps? Did it run in your family?
Did you have an MFM detailed anatomy scan? If not, get one and a genetics consultation. If diagnosis is accurate, you will also need a consultation with pediatric orthopedic specialist.
My niece was born with a club foot. With a couple years of therapy, she's now 7 and perfectly normal.
