Re: clubfoot AND heart defects

[Guest guest]

Hi

My son was born with bilateral club foot and a heart murmur was also

detected. He has a small hole about 3 mm called VSD (Ventricular Septal Defect).

He

had all the necessary tests done in the hospital and I have been following with

a Pediatric Cardiologist every six months who said that the hole should close

up within the first year of life.

Hi there. My daughter Isabella has a heart murmur. When She was born

they did an echochardiogram on her because it didn't sound like an

innocent murmur. The echo came back fine and she has no defect of her

heart at all. She still has a murmur, they said it may or may not

close up. They said they normally close up the first year of life but

hers hasn't.

Best Wishes

If I were you, I would just get the Markel shoes that are routinely used on the

DBB. They are cute, white-leather toeless shoes that soften and mold to your

child's foot. I can't believe anyone would call them ugly. In fact, that is

the one thing people commented on was how cute the shoes were.

Marilouise,

When my son was born in '00 with bcf, we spent 5 days in the hospital

because Evan turned blue around the mouth. He went into the special

care nursery and had heart ultrasounds and was on every kind of

monitor for 5 days but they never did determine the cause of the

scare. He also had a buried penis which was corrected surgically at

age 1. I will always wonder if these were in any way connected to

the cf. I have never read of heart connections but have read about

connections with the buried penis problem but never anything

conclusive. Anyone else know anything about this?
