Concerns and thoughts

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months
For the last couple of days, I have noticed my DD favoring one side more than the other.  Whens he in her jumperoo she picks up her left foot and her grip on the left is not nearly as strong as on the right.  My mother pointed out today that the left leg is more bowed than the right.  But it is most apparent when she is trying to crawl.  She has now problem getting the right leg underneath her but the left one seems to stay out straight.  Is this something I need to get her into the pedi for right away?  I hate to bother him with yet another question, since i feel like I constantly call him.  Or is she just trying to figure out how to coordinate everything?

    I'd talk to your pediatrician about this, or you could ask that they refer you to a infant and toddler PT.  It could be your LO has an issue with the leg they're not using, or it could just be they favor the other one.  You don't know for sure till a professional looks at it.

    I second this. It would probably worry me if it was my LO. I would want it checked out.
