    I am a tip toer ! I only do it when i am tired and dont even realise i am doing it I get lots of comments from ppl though asking me why i am doing it. I have done it forever alot worse when i was younger but the older i have gotten the less as i said mainly when i am tired. DH says its cos i'm lazy and dont want to use my muscles but aparantly he thinks its 'cute' My DD1 is 2 and i have noticed her doing it too. I never thought it was a problem but after reading some of these posts i will try to encourage her to walk properly when i notice it.

    Any other Adult tip toers out there or am i the only strange one

    Hoody - I only tip-toe on stairs. I have only really noticed that I do it because I'm now home with DS all the time & my calves are getting sore from all the walking upstairs on my tip-toes!

    Hoody, I'm an adult tip toer!
    My parents said I was forever doing it when I was little and even one of their friends would tell them there was something wrong with me.
    DH gets super frustrated with me doing it. I don't realise I'm doing it until he tells me.

    DS walks on his tip toes every now and then too.. i think mainly just because he can and its fun to be taller. I think its them just experiencing new things. He walks perfectly normal on his flat feet so im not concerned about it at all.
