Probably normal: I would really need to see what your legs look like to respond. Some people think they are "bow legged", but they really aren't. If it's just a curve in your lower legs. If your knees are in the proper position, it is probably normal. If this is nothing new, and you pediatrician growing up wasn't concerned, it's unlikely that it is abnormal. The only way to know is to see a physician.
