    Hi Polly!! My long lost mousekateer. I was so sorry to read about bub and your grandfather's passing. Just know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your little man and I'm sure things will be ok in the end.

    AFM, 16 weeks today, time goes so fast. It only feels like yesterday you and I were in the IUI thread going through treatment.

    Take care and I will pop in soon to check on you.

    Belinda xxxx

    Sorry to hear about your grandfather passing. It is shocking news to hear your child will be born with clubfoot, especially when you are not entirely sure of what the future will bring.

    Noah was born with club foot and he was treated by Minoo Patel at Monash Medical Centre in Clayton. He is the BEST orthopedic surgeon for clubfoot, everyone who gets treated by him only has the best to say about him. You are also able to book appts with him pre birth so you can get a run down on the treatment used. I highly recommend doing so to put your mind at ease.

    If it is both feet it is likely it is not positional but don't stress, everyone who gets treatment and follows through with it will have a 100% improvement.

    The further tests they are probably wanting to do is amnio, I refused because my trisomy risk was very minimal at my 12 week scan. I didn't want the 1 in 200 chance of losing Noah just to find out he didn't have any other condition. I did go for the scan though to make sure that clubfoot was the only visible impairment.

    I am now pregnant with my second child which at my 16 week scan looked to be another boy and I am almost certain I saw the same turned in foot we saw with Noah. The ultrasound specialist refused to comment until I return for my morphology scan. So it looks like more trips to Melb to see Minoo.

    So and I am here to chat if you have any questions. Excuse me if I rambled on too much but I am in that awful placenta brain stage My msn and yahoo should be in my profile as is my email.
