Clubfoot / talipes diagnosis.

Hi all,
Currently 26 weeks with a little girl. We were told in 20 week scan and confirmed in 2x scans since that she has one club foot (right foot). I can see this on the scan so know it's correct.
When we were first told, there was a concern that it was caused by a genetic disorder ie downs so we went through amnio to confirm if this is the case. No evidence of a genetic condition has been found thankfully, and the relief has meant the club foot has and does seem minimal compared to what it could have been, but I'm now at a point where I'm hoping to find out more about people's experiences of having a baby with a club foot.

I've been on the STEPs website and have looked at NHS, so know it's likely to be casting followed by a boot for however long it takes, possibly surgery, but I'm just hoping to hear from anyone else who has either had the same diagnosis or has had a child with a club foot. The STEPs website has got me a little worried if truth be told.

Thanks in advance.
:)
