Babies try to walk at about one year of age, and when they first learn to walk, parents are often worried that walking too much will affect their child’s leg shape, or that their baby will be late in walking. Every baby develops at a different time, so don’t be anxious because your baby is a little behind in one area. If your baby starts to enter the age of one week and may face the stage of learning to walk, then the following three points will need to be noted. First, parents should not be anxious. Each baby has a different developmental process and a different developmental focus. Some babies have good language skills and start talking very early, but it is possible that he will walk a little later; and babies with good motor skills may only say a few words at the age of two. These are all normal phenomena, parents should not feel that their babies are lagging behind because of comparison with others. In general, babies try to walk at about one year old, some babies may be earlier, as long as they can walk independently before 1.5 years old, it is normal. Second, parents should always pay attention to the baby’s walking posture. Baby in the initial walking, there may be some adults seem strange posture, this is due to the incomplete development of the baby’s lower limbs, with the growth of age, generally will be self-corrected, do not worry too much. Probably in the incorrect walking posture, the figure of eight is more common, there is also a common walking posture is the outside of the foot cocked, which is due to the baby’s tendons are too soft to control the muscles of the foot plate. Ergonomically speaking, people’s calves are bent inward at birth, because the thigh bones will be biased toward internal rotation, resulting in O-legged. When babies learn to walk, the O-leg will be more serious, but generally at the age of 1.5 years old will recover on its own. Again, parents should be aware of abnormalities when their baby is learning to walk. If your baby’s O-leg is still very serious after the age of 2, you should go to the hospital to consult a doctor. This is because there may be a problem with your baby’s leg development, such as a lack of stability in the knee area or a painful walking sensation. In addition to O-leg, parents should also observe whether there are any abnormalities in the appearance of the baby’s legs, such as one leg being bigger or shorter than the other, or the skin texture of the legs being asymmetrical, and whether the baby’s hip joints are not well developed when walking, resulting in rattling sounds. If any of these conditions are present, parents should promptly take their baby to the doctor, who can provide the most appropriate treatment for the child’s problem. Treatments include: medication, corrective braces and surgery. In addition, parents need not worry if they find that their child has flat feet. It may be an artifact due to excess fat in the baby’s feet and loose ligaments. Most babies will develop arches when they grow up. If you still have flat feet after the age of 2, you can take your baby to the hospital for a consultation. Your baby learning to walk is an exciting event for him or her and for parents. Whether early or late, there is no need to worry too much. Parents should be more observant when their baby is already trying to walk, especially when there is an inconsistency in the appearance of the legs, which may be caused by a congenital problem and should be taken seriously. O-shaped legs and flat feet are not a problem, and will disappear on their own as the baby grows older. When babies are learning to walk, parents should give timely encouragement to make them feel that they can walk is a matter of pride.
