desirae, everyone is different. it's okay your child learns now everyone is different.

I hope a "pediatric orthopedist" is treating your daughter.

When my child was first born, a few doctors pediatricians recommended my son get braces on his legs due to congenital hip dislocation and also mentioned my son may need surgery.

When we went to the specialist (orthopedics doc), this doctor say he heard nothing wrong with my son's hip. He said that the other pediatricians were just CYAs (covering their buttocks). However, it was good the other docs were concerned and made a referral to the specialist.
