Has he been checked for the genetic disorder Osteogenesis Imperfecta? This can cause bow leggedness in babies and kids. I would get this checked out!!! I know I have OI and even though I didn't have this I have several friends who did.
I don't know anything about premature babies except the lung and digestive problems that they can have, but I would absolutely get his vitamin D level checked as this could possibly be RICKETS. It's a bone development disorder that has been known since 1822, and the primary and very visible symptom is bowed legs. There's tons of info on vitamin D on my profile with one paragraph about rickets. Let me know if you have any questions. Take care. Larissa
Post Comments - Is this problem caused by bow legness? Or is it a cause of something else?
