How to prevent my baby from getting bowed legs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You can't: Many children have some degree of curvature of their legs, and the vast majority of time this is within a normal range and corrects on it's own as they grow, requiring no intervention (bracing, surgery). There is no way to prevent this from happening, however.
