She's 4 now and now that I read this it occurs to me that she actually has gotten much better between 3.5-4+. Can't hurt to bring it up. Our pediatrician has them walk for her down the hall and back during the physical. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-this-bother-you-15#post-2672429 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 12:09:36 +0000 matador84 2672429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@madisonbee: Agreed. I feel like sometimes I overscrutinize because I work with a lot of kids with special needs so sometimes I might pay attention to things that other parents probably never notice. A fatal flaw!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-this-bother-you-15#post-2672422 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 11:55:40 +0000 Mrs. Oreo 2672422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84: I see it so much that it's "normal" in my world. It could be independently her foot turning in or it could be from her hips causing her leg/foot to do that. Worth it to have her pediatrician take a peek. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-this-bother-you-15#post-2672412 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 11:49:30 +0000 gotkimchi 2672412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84: it could be caused by a few things, is it just her foot turning in or her whole leg when she walks? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-this-bother-you-15#post-2672407 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 11:47:44 +0000 matador84 2672407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@madisonbee: Not freaking out, but something just tells me it isn't really normal. No one has ever mentioned clubfoot to me, but seriously--her feet have been like this since Day 1. </p> <p>We love her ped SO much, but at her well checks she doesn't get undressed or shoes off--so I'm wondering if she's never noticed it before. She's almost 3 and I'm just starting to think it should have corrected itself by now! (it it's even anything).</p> <p>@gilmoregirl: I have never heard of that! Funny story though--I used to be an ice skater too! I started around 3. Hoping it's something that's nothing that she'll grow out of.</p> <p>@avivoca: good to know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-this-bother-you-15#post-2672210 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 20:13:18 +0000 avivoca 2672210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sister has this with one of her feet. She's okay now (29) and it doesn't cause her any trouble. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-this-bother-you-15#post-2672198 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 19:36:55 +0000 gilmoregirl 2672198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My feet did this when I was little and I would always walk crooked. The doctor suggested my mom try putting me on roller skates to avoid gettIng special shoes with braces (I don't know if they do this anymore) and that's how I started ice skating. Around 2 I think. Obviously this is not medical advice...I think I likely just grew out of it. Not the ice skating though ;)</p> <p>In any event, I definitely don't think you're crazy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-this-bother-you-15#post-2672194 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 19:14:45 +0000 Mrs. Oreo 2672194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>P.S. You're not crazy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-this-bother-you-15#post-2672193 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 19:14:17 +0000 Mrs. Oreo 2672193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Was there ever mention of a clubfoot when she was little? Not that it looks like that exactly, but curious. That might be considered intoeing. I work with pediatrics and I see this all day, every day in my clinic. It is nothing serious, but you should have her pediatrician refer you to a pediatric orthopedic doctor to monitor how she walks and how her foot turns in, especially with tripping and walking. Often times, they grow out of it but sometimes they don't and may eventually need some kind of treatment, like orthotics or surgery (not to freak you out!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-this-bother-you-15#post-2672183 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 18:21:38 +0000 matador84 2672183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I noticed when LO was little her foot was turned a little oddly and it's always been in the back of my mind. Kind of like maybe it was all in my head and I never even remembered to ask her ped about it at any of her well checks. Anyway, it's been bothering me more and more the last few months because something just doesn't seem right about it. </p> <p>Her well check is coming up in the next couple months. Does it seem weird-looking to anyone else, or is it just me? If I try and straighten her foot out she clenches up her toes on her foot. It doesn't seem to bother her at all or effect how she runs or walks, but she does trip and fall much more often than my other child. Call me crazy!!!! (Seriously, you can. Ha ha.) </p> [attach=2081/16/oj0u82.338x600.image.png]
