My baby is now 6 months. I am trying to help him stand but he uses his 腳尖 to stand. Anyone has similar problem? Do you think it is a serious problem? I bring him to see the doctor in Chai Wan Eastern Hospital today and he asked me to take him to have a brain ultrasound. The baby looks fine basically. The doctor said it could be the brain problem??? Apparently, from my memory a lot of babies use 腳尖 to stand when they are very young. Thank you
Brain ultrasound??!! I think the doctor completely jumped the gun. A lot of babies tip-toe when they first stand, especially those who use walkers.
My girl is 8 months and she's so lazy she can't even stand yet. But her legs are very strong. She kicks me really hard when I change her and bathe her. My doctor says no need to worry yet.
My doctor said that it is very common for babies to stand or walk on their tip toe, so I think it is better to ask your doctor why need to have brain ultrasound.
Yes you are right - I didn't use 學行車 since it's more easier for the bb to tip-toe. I ask the doctor why brain ultrasound is necessary - he said the brain controls the tension of the leg. If the tension is too strong then the baby will tip toe. That's why if there is something wrong with the brain then it will affect the tension of the leg. There could be a tumour inside the brain or there might be "water" inside. It sounds quite terrible so that's why I am so anxious.
my son sometime stands with tip-toe just like a ballet dancer especially when he wants to catch something but it is too high for him. it is quite funny
It is very normal. Since babies are still small, before they can really walk, they alway tiptoe. Don't worry. Once they start to learn walking, it will become better.
