Guest guest Posted May 5, 2004 Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 Hi, My little girl is just 11 months old today. She was born with bilateral cf and cast using Ponseti method from 3 days old. She did not need the tenotomy in either foot and immediately went onto the DBB after castings. She wore them full time until just a month ago when my Dr. said that she could go down to naps and nightime, giving a total of about 14 hrs a day wear. Although her feet look good, I am slightly concerned that she does not really want to weight bare much and I have noticed that when she does sometimes her right foor (the one that was slightly stiffer) rolls outwardsI may just be being paranoid, I have an extremely good and well trained Ponseti Dr. but acouple of sleepless nights are taking their toll on my nerves. I am going to see the Dr. on Monday, but I have one or two questions to all of you with a little more experience. Firstly, does 14 hours sound like enough time in the DBB? Secondly if I was to email Dr. P. , what kind of photos (that is angles) should I take of her feet and What is his email address? He must get a frightening amount of mail -how long does it take to get a reply? Any help?comforting thoughts would be most welcome. (Yorks.
