Knocked knees

[Sarahconfused]

My three year old hasknocked knees. Dodtor says that it is a developing stage and his legs should straighten up by the time he is seven. should i listen to him and wait...what if they dont..

Doctor says they are all born bow legged then hips change shape....how come mine is the only one then...or is there anyone with same problem

My DD is slightly knock-kneed but this is due to having very hypermobile hips. It is particularly apparent when she runs!

I also have 2 friends with DD's who have knock knees - one is now 5 and you would never have known how bow legged she was as a toddler. She never had any intervention and they have just straightened up by themselves.

It is quite common and usually nothing to worry about according to everything I have read on the internet!
