Nowadays, people pay great attention to whether their legs look good, and many mothers also pay attention to their baby's leg shape. Because their explanation is that the leg shape is very small and can be seen, they want to know their baby's leg shape earlier and correct it in a timely manner if there are any problems. How to determine the leg shape of a one year old baby?
The first type is the appearance of O-shaped legs, and mothers should be able to detect some abnormalities in this type of baby at the age of one. The tibia of the calf will rotate inward at an angle. This type of baby has short and chubby calves. The amplitude of the bone arch looks very obvious and will become increasingly apparent, which can be seen by the naked eye of the mother.
The second type is X-shaped legs, in which the knees of the baby's legs can be seen to be outward facing. The femurs of the two knee joints are very close, but there is still a distance to the joints, which is obviously like the letter X. Most of these are caused by physiological reasons, and many are due to the baby not being injured before the age of one.
In fact, the leg shape of a one year old baby is not easy to determine, so mothers should not worry too much. Some things actually become normal when the baby is older. It is best for mothers to regularly take their babies to see a doctor for specific examinations to see if there is any abnormal development. If the leg shape is not correct, it should be corrected as soon as possible. The baby's muscles and bones can grow normally.
