Check your baby’s feet - Naveed Yaseen - 03-25-2009 10:49 AM

A baby’s feet grow quickly. During the infant’s first year, it’s important to check the feet regularly to be sure they are developing normally.

The American Podiatric Medical Association offers these suggestions:

Health Tips

* Examine your baby’s feet carefully. Report anything that looks unusual to your paediatrician.

* Allow the baby’s feet to move. Let baby lie on his or her back without a blanket or cover, to allow the feet to kick.

* Don’t wrap or cover your baby’s feet tightly — leave covers loose so that your baby can move the feet freely.

* Move your baby frequently, and don’t let him or her stay in the same position for too long. Frequent position changes put less strain on the legs and feet.
