Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 My daughter Sofia was born w/ 2 club feet. We had the casts till she was 4 months old with the Tendectomy at 2 months. Anyway, she has been in the DBB since she was 4 months old and at 9 months went to night time use only. Our Dr, here in Kansas City, told me today that it all looks great. Sofia is 1 1/2 and he thinks that she might be out of the brace by 2 years of age. I know that up in Iowa they keep the children in the DBB till they are 3 years old or older. I'm wondering what difference does it make to have them stay on the brace till they are 3 or 4 years old? Has anybody had their children's feet not keep the correction if they went off the brace at 2 years of age? My Dr uses the Ponsetti method, but he is not in the " Ponsetti List " of Doctors.
