Hello,
I wouldn't bet on, that the walking is improving just by the time.
This kind of walking during/ after LL , its similar to Trendelenburg, is caused by the trauma of surgery,
trauma of lengthening process day by day and being  more or less inactive for weeks or months.
To get back a proper walking its needed to work out balance and proprio exercises.
Its not just done by improving flexibility and strength.
The brain has to learn walking again, not the legs!

Im working with LL for about 10 years as Physical Therapist, just can add is from my experience.

Hmm I think the answer is YMMV but you could try walking for long periods of time. Don't take my advise as gold since I've only consulted my current orthopedics doctor on the issue.

Btw I think you should start to see some improvement once your frames are off and your muscles and bones are fully supported.
