making trousers

I have just made up a toile for a pair of trousers. After shortening the distance between the crotch & the waist, the inside seams of the back leg on both sides is turning forward pulling the line of the leg out of kilter. Any ideas what I've done wrong?

Did you do any hip corrections or did you just drop the waist? If you just lowered the waist and didn't account for any roundness in the front, the fabric may be pulling forward from the back to compensate.
