Welcome to our neighborhood. Here's a typical scene, that I shot from the window of our flat the first week that we were here.
This appears to be some women who are acquaintances who are about their daily activities. They just encountered each other at this corner. Note the typical dress. Also note the woman carrying her baby on her back. The woman leans forward and somehow lays the baby on her back face down. She then raps a blanket tightly around the baby and ties the blanket in front of her. It would seem that children would grow up bowlegged the way their legs are spread around the mother but we haven't noticed anymore bowlegs here than anywhere else.
