Fingers or toes?

Strange

[quote author=Bilabong post=111406273]Fingers or toes? [toes. Thanks]

Congenital defect it seems. Well, they just have to wait it out and hope/pray the phalanges grow. But then, don't forget that phalanges don't grow to equal length.

Some peopleare born with parts of one arm smaller than the other and it doesnt "shoot out". Thank God your own is just toes shoes can easily cover.

[quote author=Babastrong post=111409169][/quote]It's less likely shortened 3rd, 4th, 5th digits phalanges would affect her walking when she grows. Her mother should bfeed her well during nursing, and feed her with nutritious meals rich in calcium during weaning. I'm pretty sure she'll walk normal and dazzle like a prince when she grows.
