Guest guest Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 My son was born on 04 November 2005 with bilateral talipes. He started treatment at 10 days old in Musgrave Park Hospital in Belfast as we live in Northern Ireland. We are very lucky in that the hospital uses the Ponseti method as we would really have had no alternative if it hadn't been this. The talipes was not picked up during my pregnancy, so I have only been able to do all my research on the topic after was born. We have now reached the stage of reducing the hours from 23/24 and I have read with interest the messages that recommend that you don't reduce too quickly as our doctor has said that we can now go to just night time and nap time. I would appreciate any advice from more experienced parents and would also ask if anyone has had problems with their babies' toenails, particularly the big toe. My son is gorgeous & like everyone his dad & I want to do the best we can. I look forward to some good advice! Ruth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
