ultrasounds including the neo-natal specialist. Her feet are just

held in an awkward position. He is recommending the Denis Browne bar

for two hours twice a day just to return the feet to their natural

position. Her feet do not show a crease on the sole. They also will

dorisflex 20degrees past flat, indicating their is no shortness of the

achilles.

What great news! My daughter (next one up from my clubfoot baby) was born with

what looked so much like a clubfoot ... but it was flexible. It is sometimes

referred to as a " positional " clubfoot although it isnt really a clubfoot at

all.

Anyway, she is 3.5 now and her foot is perfect! In fact, the " clubbing " went

away completely on its own in a few months and all she was left with was

metatarsus adductus (a separate " defect " where the front of the feet turn in).

Now even that is gone after wearing reverse last shoes for a couple months :-)

You will be looking back in a few months thinking " did her feet REALLY look like

that?? "

Hello Jeff,

How wonderful for you and the family.

It was great to jump on here this morning and see your post.

I have been praying that everything would be alright.

How long will she have to use the DBB (until what age)?

When will she start using DBB?
