- Did you know that developmental dysplasia of the hips is the most common orthopedic disorder in newborns? That was the diagnosis for one local family. Their daughter Lucy, who is now 3 years old, was born with dysplasia of the hips and has now gone through surgery to fix the position of the hip and socket to allow for normal development, thanks to the help of the UT Physicians pediatric orthopedic team.
Im a 51 year old woman, I had this surgery between the ages of 2 and 4. I am a very active person leading a normal life. Apart from a little bit of discomfort in the one hip after overexersion, I rarely am aware of my hips. I have 2 beautiful sons. They dont have this condition.
Thank you so much for posting this. My 3 year old was just diagnosed with this condition and will be having surgery soon, followed by 3 months in the spica cast. We are very scared and overwhelmed. It helps to hear success stories.
Thank you so much for posting this. My nieces pediatrician did not figure it out as a baby and now she has having surgery. Thank you for showing this!
Hi. How did your child go?

Yep I've had it both sides
My twin bayy have smae problem
My twin baby , one of them have same issue, i m going for surgery
I suspect this is caused by improper holding of baby. Pulling on newborn leg for diaper changes. Splaying hips before baby is ready. ‘Baby Bjorn’ type leg dangling carriers. Holding baby up to walk before she/he gains strength to do on own. Jolly jumper type leg dangling exercise before ready. Exersauser too young. Bumbo seat before baby ready ~ children have died sitting in these. ‘Container baby’ type of mothering. First child parents are new and have a lot of learning to do. Female babies tend to be lighter and held on the hip improperly. Babies are born perfect. It’s the parents that cause the deformity.🙊🙈🙉
Well… my daughter has been diagnosed with hip dysplasia at 1 day old. So definitely she wasn’t “born perfect”. The doctors have done the screening because I was born with hip dysplasia aswell, genetics do play a role here 🤷🏼♀️
@@Natalianed2021 was this a cesarian birth? or breach feet first presenting vaginal birth? Perhaps the doctor yanked on your daughter's leg(s) to pull her out of womb.
Wrong I was born with it
@@doyouhearthepeoplesing2 that's the story you were told. Ask for your birth records and entire medical file.
@elizabethmonsell1847 I've seen them thanks I was born in 1990 I was born on the Friday and by the following Monday I was in a brace for hip dysplasia
