A. To check if a baby has knock knees, wait until your child is at least 2 to 3 years old, as slight knock knees are normal in toddlers and usually correct themselves with growth. However, here’s how you can observe it: Ask your baby (if walking) to stand straight with knees together. If the ankles stay apart and don’t touch while the knees are touching, it may be knock knees. It may also be noticeable if your child walks with knees bent inward. In babies under 2 years, bowlegs (opposite of knock knees) are more common and normal. If your child is over 3 years old, and the condition looks severe, is only on one side, or affects walking, balance, or causes pain, it’s best to consult a pediatrician or orthopedic doctor for proper evaluation.
