My sister is pregnant and they told her
that the baby has a cleft foot and I'm
wondering exactly what that means if
anyone knows???? Or if anyone has and
info on where I can find out.

tell your sister that her baby is still
gonna be just as beautiful. my baby had a
cleft lip and all i could do was keep
crying about it i finally just came to
terms with it.

That's so sad, but I agree with Chase..
The baby will still be just as beautiful!

It's possible that your sister's baby will
be able to have an operation to correct,
or at least improve, his/her feet when
older but if not then s/he will still be
beautiful and not 'gross'.
None of us are perfect, it's just that for
some of us our 'imperfections' are more
visible.

oh for sure...its like what elementary
child would say not an adult...bet if her
child had that deformity she would not say
that! either way to say it about any child
or person for that matter is pretty
immature.

ok i agree.
your sister's babyis going to be just
fine, even witha cleft foot. I am sure
that there maybe something that they could
do for the baby. good luck and keep us
informed.
