I've never posted on this section before, but I was noticing that when my daughter walks its always on the insides of her feet like they are turning inwards. Is this normal?? She's been walking since Valentines day and she is 14 months old.

I'd ask the ped at your next appointment.

My dd was very bow legged and her feet turn in a lot. The doctor says that in time her own weight bearing down will self correct this. She explained that for so many months in uertro the legs and feet were squished up and now just need time to straighten and time and her own body weight should do this. Maybe this is too simplified but I really trust my ped and really do see an improvement within the past month or so. Also, doc said to let dd walk bare foot or wear soft shoes as much as possible.
