Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Club foot and dilated ventricle are soft markers of chromosomal anomalies in the ultrasound.
In this case, amniocentesis is done to confirm the fetal karyotype.
Since you have got amniocentesis done, I would suggest you to wait for the results. These soft markers have a risk of chromosomal anomaly, however they are not confirmatory.
I suggest you to to be positive, and get further management accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
