    Thanks Rivy,

    It is called hip dysplasia. It happens to about 1:1000 kids. Babies that are breech get it common. Genetically it happens most to girls. Because she was a breech bay her hip joint didn't develop properly. Almost like dislocated.
    She has a mild case of it. We wen to the orthopedic doc last week and it is getting better with the brace. The brace holds her legs apart so that hip joint is kinda held together like a cast. She just has to wear it for 3 months. We take it off for 15 mins for bath time. You can tell that she likes it off. 3 months will go by fast. Tough now but it is lucky our doctor caught it early. She has a high percentage +80% of full recovery/normal hip. Thanks!
