We had our follow up U/S with our MFM doctors today. When we went last time at 21 weeks, they told us baby had 2 clubfeet, so we were preparing for the worst possible scenario.
Today, the doctor thinks her left foot looks normal and he said her right foot is at most slightly clubbed. He even mentioned how sometimes they think they see something and everything turns out to be normal, and said it's possible all of this was worry over nothing. He gave us his business card and told us to call when she's born to let him know if there was even an issue at all! There's a 20% false positive rate of clubfoot diagnoses during pregnancy, so I'm praying that we fall into that group and she has perfect little feet at birth. And even if not, it seems that our little girl's issue will be fairly minimal. The doctor told us that he was very underwhelmed by her feet, everything else looked like it should, and that there's no need to come back. I'm so happy!
