A member asked:
My 9 month old has been sitting up on his own since ~6 months, but since about 7 he mostly just does w - sitting. i hear this is a concern for toddlers, but what about infants? should i move him out of it when i see it? does he need to be evaluated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Let him be. It can lead to persistent in-toeing (pigeon toed)after they learn to walk, but this is seldom a problem until the 2nd year if then.
