I found out a family member has been ‘walking’ my 3 month old across the floor. Supporting under armpits and not putting much weight on legs but I’ve read this is bad for their physical development. This family member visits me for a few hours every day and will watch baby whilst I make bottles, take a nap etc so it’s probably been happening a few times a day for a couple of minutes at a time. I only noticed it a couple of days ago and it’s been playing on my mind.
Baby kicks legs and moves arms normally I think but do I need to get her checked?
She had multiple hip scans up to 12 weeks as her hips were a little underdeveloped but they did eventually meet requirements to be discharged from hospital.
Thanks
