I have a 20 month old little girl that has a asymmetric natal claft I am concerned as she still can not walk properly she can stand and walk holding on but her right foot turns outwards and she tends to drag it and even more so when she is tired. It does seem like she doesnt have much balance when holding one hand. I am worried as when she was first seen at about 8mnths they said it was fine. They have now reffered her to have an MRI im jst worried if this means she wont be able to walk, or is there something that can be done. I ve read things on the net about this and other peoples comments but they all seem to be about younger children and not where they can t walk. Please help as not sure how long this MRI will be...
I think your baby has some degree of spasticity in her lower limb particularly on the right side. It's called cerebral palsy. These babies have difficulty in learning motor skills. An MRI brain must be done urgently. Also take her to a physiotherapist who will be help you with some exercises which will help your child to learn faster.
