I would have her looked at by a vet. There may be something structurally wrong with her legs. You really need a trained person to look at her. If there is something wrong, you want to address it before her bones have set. Many times a little physical therapy will help but you need to know what it is (if anything) that is wrong.

I had a little girl born earlier this year with rear legs that turned inward and her toes curled under. I had her at an orthopedic vet's when she was only a few days old having her checked out. He checked her structure and recommended physical therapy for her and showed me what to do. It worked and she developed just fine but, if she hadn't showed good progress, we would have been doing some kind of binding to align the legs properly.

From my experience, I would say she needs to be checked out while you still have a window of opportunity before the bones set.
