Well it's good news on our front! The unofficial verdict from the u/s was that his hips look fine, everything is where it should be. So I'm very relieved and feeling so lucky.

Interestingly, she did say that they get heaps of babies in for clicky hips, and most of them are fine (that was the info I'd been looking for last week lol)... so Skye & Butterfly Warrior, hoping that's a relief for you too. Also, thanks to Minimatron & others in the hip dysplasia group, they posted some great questions for when you go.... (so hopefully you don't have to wait on results you can find out pretty much on the spot):
? Is the hip in place?
? Does the cup cover the ball?
? Is the ball formed?
? is the cup formed?
? is the hip dislocatable?
? what is the coverage in percentage?
? When/how will we get the results?

thank you for the support everyone, much appreciated
