    Pigeon toes

    DD has turned in toes. Pigeon toes. I think quite noticeably - but maybe that's just cuz I'm her mum.

    When she stops, the natural position for her feet is turned. She looks like she's going to trip herself over when she runs, but I wouldn't say she's any more or less clumsy than other kids in her class at school.

    Is this something that I should be getting checked??

    I'd get it checked, they can determine where the turn is coming from, a friends DD has the same, they see an ortho surgeon, it's a wait and see ATM....I think it's a problem if the turn is from the thighs.

    Get it looked at now. The problems it can cause later is not worth it.
