distance between the shoes?

[Guest guest]

hi everybody!

here comes a question from me in sweden.

i've heard that the distance between the shoes are going to be as wide as

the shoulders. is that correct?

i just heard from another clubfoot mother from sweden that it was new

directions now and the bar between the shoes is going to be as wide as the

hips, accordingly much more narrow.

what do all you know about this?

hugs from us!

,

It's definitely as wide as the shoulders, not the hips. If grows a

little and they are a little narrower than his shoulders, he cannot

sleep well he is uncomfortable! The gap between the heels should be

equal to the measurement shoulder to shoulder, you can even go a little

bit wider rather than narrower.

, yes, the distance between the shoes should be the same as

the width of the baby's shoulders. To see a picture, go to
