When do foot/calf size differences show up?

[Guest guest]

Hiya:

Our unilateral CF 7-week-old son just emerged victorious from his post-

tenotomy cast. His dr. says his foot looks " perfect " and he's quite

happily wearing his Ponseti/ shoes without complaint. So far,

so good! Woo hoo!

Since he's still sporting plenty of baby fat, it's really hard to

figure out if there's any noticeable difference in his foot and calf

size vs. his normal foot. Those of you with unilateral kiddies, when

does that sort of thing tend to show up? Much later when they're

walking and losing baby fat?
