Growing Pains

Postnatal, Your questions

Marie, can my nine-month-old baby have growing pains in their legs? Thanks, Pascale

Pascale, I don’t know what your baby is doing to make you think that they have growing pains in their limbs.

If you see worrying signs, you should talk to your doctor so that they can verify everything.

Growing pains that we note, especially in children’s knees and legs, are usually felt around 7, 8 and 10 years of age. However, if you see symptoms in your baby, the doctor will examine their hips and joints to eliminate possible problems.

Talk soon,

Marie
