Anyones babies born with their feet a little bit bent and get a referral for it from the hospital ?

We was referred by the doctor that did my 6 week checkup as his feet are a little bent when placed flat. I Hurd nothing so presumed everything was ok. I got a call yesterday saying they have a new head nurse who’s read his file and has. Triaged him to be seen asap on the 27th of December. I’m a little worried now.

my son has the same! he’s only 4 weeks so still waiting to see if it fixes itself x but following for what happens x

Yes my youngest daughter spent a lot of time in the womb with her feet bent inwards. We had a referral to see the physio & were given little excercises to do to help the muscles in her feet. By the time she was 6months, the issue had corrected itself & she's got no issues with walking etc....

@Sarah🦄 I presumed we’d see physio but we’ve been referred to the fracture clinic! He’s 9 months now and we do notice it , not as much as when he was born but there’s definitely still a bend. His feet were tucked nicely into my ribs 🥰🥴😂 so I’m presuming that’s where it’s come from

@Lillie I’ll try to remember to update after our appointment!x

It could be many things. If you saw it and didn't worry you, maybe it is not that bad. Like someone mentioned above, some children recover with physio, others need a cast. He definitely should have been seen before 9 months, though.

My sons were the same, I had to do lil exercises/physio at home with him. I can’t remember how long it took but his feet are completely fine now, no issues at all
