Help!!! Learning to walk foot rolling inward

hi! I'm a first time mom and I'm kind of freaking... My son is almost 10 months old he has been scoot/crawling for a while  he has now started pulling himself up on everything, "bear crawling", he can walk behind a walker on carpet and walks while holding my hand. The problem is that my sons foot keeps rolling inward like his whole foot from the ankle and he walks on his tip toes... Of course I started googling and pictures of club foot came up or talipes equinovarus .... Has anyone had experience with this? His foot looks normal if he is just laying down. I don't know if it is a normal part of development or not. I attached a picture so you can kind of see what I'm talking about.

    My son does this too. I'm not too worried about it yet. When he's trying to pull himself up I usually just turn it to the correct position.

    This is really normal and very common. Nothing at all to worry about. Let your doctor know at your next appointment and he/she can advise you about red flags to watch for in the future and reassure you about your fears.
