International Hip Dysplasia Institute Learn more about hip dysplasia at: www.hipdysplasia.org My wife and I first became aware of hip dysplasia when our son Wyatt was born with the condition.

At the time we thought that the condition was just in dogs. We quickly came to find that not only is it very common, but also that there was very little universal information out there about the condition. You can imagine how difficult it was to hear that “it happens sometimes” and that it “might correct itself”. Those aren’t exactly the kind of answers that new parents want to hear. After researc

What do we recommend?
Your baby may benefit from an early hip evaluation if:
• They were in a breech position
• They are female
• There is a family history of hip dysplasia
• The delivery was difficult or complicated

📌 Early screening with a hip ultrasound or clinical evaluation is important, even when the newborn exam appears normal.

At the International Hip Dysplasia Institute, we believe that early detection changes lives.
Awareness and education make all the difference 💙
