We had our anomaly scan today and were told one foot looks like talipes. Feeling overwhelmed. What questions should we ask at our next appointment? Any parents been through this in the UK?

Great question. We used NHS physio handouts plus videos from our clinic and it really helped consistency.

We had a very similar experience. Keep a daily photo log of foot position - it helped us and our consultant a lot.

Just to reassure you: many babies go through this stage and still do brilliantly long-term.
