Guest guest Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 I'm a veteran (sort of) to clubfeet. My daughter Rose was born with a left clubfoot in January 99, and she started seeing Dr. Ponseti at 6 months with terrific results. I'm expecting #4, and I'm a little over 25 weeks pregnant. We recently discovered this baby has spina bifida and bilateral clubfeet. I'm curious of whether the Ponseti Method would be beneficial in our case. I know with spina bifida clubfoot does usually require surgery, but my question is more on the level of would the Ponseti Method be better? Also, does anybody here have experience with spina bifida? I'll be looking up other message boards specifically geared toward spina bifida, obviously, so I have more info, but I'd appreciate hearing from you. I'd appreciate any input. Thank you!
