Guest guest Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 My 9 months old daughter has bilateral club feet. She started the serial casting at 2 weeks, then had braces. Meanwhile,by 7 months she had her heel cord lenghthening surgery. Her left foot is still not flexible. After more recent castings on her left foot only, we are in a wait and see situation. She crawls, stands up holding on her superyard gate. The braces are slippery. Her orthopedist's assistant advised us to put shoes that cover her braces. Has any of you had this same advice?

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Hi there Lydie: Who is your daughter's doctor? Are you doing the Ponseti method? Does your daughter wear the shoes and bar? lydmam wrote: My 9 months old daughter has bilateral club feet. She started the serial casting at 2 weeks, then had braces.
