Guest guest Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Hello , Thanks for your reply. My son's feet are still curved inwards and that seems to be the reason behind him tripping, he trips over his other foot. I am in the process of finding another dr to see but the dr we see now is aparently the top orthopedic sergion in Australia. redskline123@...> wrote: When you say his feet are affecting the way he walks, what do you mean? Do his feet look straight? Or do they still looked curved? I only ask because I have a son who is 2 and a half also, without club feet, and he's falling CONSTANTLY! If it's just the tripping that's worrying you, but his feet otherwise seem okay, then that's probably normal!! Those goofy boys just are always getting ahead of themselves & falling all over I think! But if you're still worried, I would definitely seek a 2nd opinion. , mommy of: Guinevere, on, Ava 8/4/04 right CF DBB 23/7 > > > Hello all this is my first time here.

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Hi Christie We are also from Australia. I thought I was the only one. We are currently living in Melbourne. is 7 months old and has a right club foot and has progressed to wearing his DBB at night time only. Our ortho seems ok. I'd like to hear from you or you can send me a private email to mumtwoboys @ yahoo.com.au Sharon Christie Appleyard aussymumof2@...> wrote: Hello , Thanks for your reply.
