Does anyone’s baby have/had club foot?

Question

My baby boy due in June has one. I wanna know what to expect. Pics are bonus points cause there’s not much on here about it.

Answer

At birth.

First cast (didn't cry):

Second cast (slept through it lol):

And now we're on his fourth out of 7 or 8.

And here's what boots and bar looks like:

Answer

There's a group on Glow for clubfoot- it's not very active but I'm always on it and here if you wanna talk. My 6 week old has one and I've done TONS of research and spoke to many women at the ortho going through it. Take the steps seriously bc if you dont, or slack off, it can come back when your child is older and could lead to surgery etc. 
They start baby off in casts.... Once a week for several weeks, baby gets a new cast and this slowly corrects the foots position. Baby fusses in discomfort at the time of each new casting, but then in never seems to bother him. 
After the several weeks of casts, depending on the severity, the doc will clip the tendon which sounds terrible but it's done right there in the ortho, it's a noninvasive "surgery". 
After that (if you even need to have that procedure), baby moves on to "boots and bar".., The boots are strapped to a bar that positions the feet outward to prevent relapse as the child grows. Here's the tough part. Baby wears the boots and bar for the first few months for 23hours a day. It won't prevent baby from learning to crawl, and they won't even know better. At this point they think this is all normal. Get some baby leg-warmers and knee high socks for this stage, it's easier than pants for diaper changes. 
After the three months of all-day wear, baby only wears boots and bar when asleep, until three years old. It'll be part of the nighttime routine and again, they'll think it's totally normal. 
It was very hard for me but I'm now ready to tackle this bc I have a three year old, and knowing how quickly time passes as a mom, it'll feel like no time before this is all over with. Don't feel stressed or overwhelmed or guilty. They trust you, and you're here to help and protect them. I'll post pics in a separate comment :)
