Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Jonah did this for a couple of months whenever he was out of the FAB. It was like he was tightening his whole foot up into a foot-fist. He would relax his foot when we rubbed it. He loves having his feet rubbed and grabs our toes to rub them too. Hopefully his future wife thanks me someday for encouraging this... Anyway-- he did this toe-curling thing for a few months and then he stopped doing it. Jonah and your son must have very close birthdays--he turns 14 months next week.

Has anyone noticed their son or daughter curling their toes at all when they walk? He was born with bilateral clubfoot and wears the DBB the required about of time, and he is a patient of Dr. Herzenberg's. We are scheduled for a check up next month and I will ask Dr. H about this, but in the meantime, I was wondering if this is something that other parents have noticed, and if it is something I should be concerned about.
