Information on ClubFeet in Black and White

Marion's Story

My daughter was born with a club foot.

She has casts, her tendon cut and in a few weeks new braces. my problems is that this poor baby WILL NOT SLEEP?

Unless she is being held, we cant put her down. Does anyone else have this problem with their baby?

SHe doesnt seem to mind the casts but she is so fussy....I need some help with suggestions? We have a pillow under her hips to help with the cast weight but nothing is helping. Siging off a sleepless mummy...

My daughter was born with club feet and her father and I did not get any sleep at all We found to give her tylenol at night to help her. Cause i can imagine her legs were throbbing from the cast. That worked in the beginig. Then when she gt her braces she was not used to sleeping with them at first but then she figured out her own way to be comfortable at nap and night time. Dont give up!!!
