True or just Old wives tale?

Me
So my baby is 4.5 months and likes to be held as if she is standing up on her own. I hold her and her weight is on her legs and she will hold herself up until her legs buckle (but she doesn't fall down bc I'm holding her). Hopefully you guys know what I mean. Well my mom saw me doing this and told me not too because her legs can't stand that much pressure and it will cause her to go bowlegged. Is that true? I've been doing it for at least 2 wks and now I'm worried
