Hip Click?

[Heaven]

Thanks guys. I hope it's not that

I have an appt with the chiro next week for me so I'll take her and ask if he can look at it aswell, maybe he could help?

Hi Heaven

Just wanted to share my story with you, DD also had clicky hips, and uneven creases on the front of her thighs so she was sent for an u/s which showed there was absolutely nothing wrong with her hips. It was just one of those things.

Hope thats the case for your DD

ps- love love love your new avi!

Thanks Manhattan, I'm hoping it's nothing! Got the appt for the ultrasound on the 30th.

Well I took DD2 with me to my chiro appt and he had a look at her. He said she was tighter in one hip and adjusted her but said that there wasn't anything majorly wrong and it wouldn't be anything bad.

Then she had her check-up at the GP this morning and she tested her hips and couldn't hear a click at all.

So hopefully it was just something from being squished in there and has fixed itself.

Keep the appointment though, hun. DD's MCHN and the paed couldn't feel anything was wrong a few days later, and we fell into the security that she was going to be fine and I didn't put up a fight for the ultrasound. When we went back for the ultrasound, the paed (different one) couldn't feel anything was wrong, but sent us for an u/s just in case.

PM me if you want any info, or have any questions. There is a way to swaddle babies too that helps prevent it (if they are inclined).

Thanks PacRak, we'll definitely still be having the u/s to check!! Did your DD end up having hip dysplasia?? Would love to know about the swaddling thing!

[Miss.September]

Yeah, she did. And bad. Had it have been picked up on the original ultrasound, if we had been able to have it, it would have been better, we would have caught it earlier and it might not have gone on for so long. I'll PM you the link for the swaddling - another hip dysplasia mum had it on her FB.

DD3 had a hip and knee click. No one picked it up until I mentioned it. Thankfully it turning out to be nothing to worry about either. I can remember my panick and concern at the time..

Ugh, the panic is the worst!!!!! I was almost relieved to have an answer rather than go through any more stress waiting!
