ultrasound shows possible clubfoot

[Vaness26]

Hello Ladies,
I had an ultrasound about 2 weeks ago and today I had my routine checkup. I'm 24wks along with a boy. When the doctor came in should checked heartbeat said everything sounds perfect. Then she tells me that the ultrasound technician want to refer me to a specialist, that the baby might have clubfoot. I had no idea what questions to ask.I've had two other pregnancy and my babies had no problems or complications at all. I'm do worried now. I see the specialist on the 15th. Has anyone been told their baby may have clubfoot and it turn to be a false alarm or your baby was born with clubfoot,what can be expected?

yeah was in there for maybe 30 mins just another ultrasound, they were really nice and she pointed out where the slight twist was. After she confirmed it she just said to me they won't need to scan me again and he will be examined at birth.

Hi! I had my 20 week u/s 2 weeks ago and was referred to a specialist with a suspected club foot.
Had my visit the other day and turns oit his right foot has a slight twist to it but it's only a mild case so he will be monitored and checked on after birth. Possibility of just physio nothing big. I wpuld wouldn't worry too much club foot is easily treated nowadays but it did scare me after I found out. Good luck to you and keep me updated ♡

My sister's son has two clubbed feet. It was pretty bad when he was born, but with surgery and braces he is doing well and is walking now. He is going to be 2 in a couple weeks. It is tough on her having him go through surgery,  but it is collectable, and it doesn't have any effect on his mental capabilities. Good luck. Everything will be ok.
