Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.
I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your intrauterine fetus.

The said ULTRA SOUND report suggest that the fetus is normal except he has one abnormality which is club feet. (feet are backwardly rotated). It is not fully rotated but not placed normally forwards but deviated to inwards.

This problem can be treated after birth and is highly successful if treatment is started as soon as possible.

Regards
Dr Muzaffar.
