Maybe it was clubfoot, maybe it was just a speck on the ultrasound. When in doubt abort, the UK logic goes.
And clubbed feet is not a terrible birth defect. My daughter was born with it, and it was 14 months in corrective casts. She’s a preschooler now, and no one could ever tell there was anything wrong.
I found out about the diagnosis, had all the data before us, and had her in front of an orthopedist at 4 days old. Killing her never even would have occurred to us.
