Anyones child been referred to hospital specialist over clicky hips?

My little girl is 4 weeks old, when she was being checked over at birth, the nurse said she had quite clicky hips and that it should be checked to be on the safe side. I've received the referral letter but I was wondering if anyone else has been through it?

Just wondering what to expect x

Thank you

They should give her an ultrasound to check to them at the referral. My LG had clicky hips, we went to the specialist and had the ultra sound and she had Hip Dysplasia. She went in to a pavlik Harness at 2 weeks old. She had to wear 24/7 for 8 weeks. We saw the specialist every few weeks for ultrasounds to check progress and went whenever she needed to size up in the harness. At her 8 week appotment they were how they should be and she was out of the harness. At 9 months she had am xray to check them and was all good and she has her 15 month x ray in September (Final check up).
She is now 11 months she army crawls and can pull her self to stand.

Yeah my little girl did. It took all of 5 mins, took longer to find parking 😂. We stripped her down to her nappy and then she laid on one side and had the scan and then the other and not a peep out of her. She told us there and then that her hips were fine so big relief!

Would you sleep seperate from your spouse

Maybe it’s the universe telling me something but I’ve seen a trend of people sleeping separate than their husbands, even as far as separate rooms. I don’t want that much per se but I’d love to sleep in separate beds… wondering if I’m just weird for that/struggling too much in my relationship lol

The fact people are so wound up about this…🫪

I get it, taxes go to food stamps for people who lack on finances. But like…. I feel like it’s a bit much to say that parents shouldn’t be able to pay for soda and candy on snap… like last I knew people were able to buy Tobacco products on it??? It was about a year ago maybe but still!!! Like I didn’t see anything about that being talked about but the candy and soda is where people are drawing the line?? One of the comments on that said you can buy ice cream, they thought that was crazy!!! Like kids with tonsils taken out cant have ice cream?!?!? Ya’ll can be something else sometimes…

Kids want candy, might not be good for them but I’m sure that a lot of adults consume a lot of things that aren’t good for them too🤨 bsffr😭

Beware something may be in the water🤣

Had my 6th august baby yesterday on the 24th June tell your lil ones to get the memo and stay IN mine did not listen🤣🩷

Does the cervix soften and harden?

I’m 17 weeks 4 days pregnant, and it feels like my cervix is soft and the opening feels more open than usual. I am too scared to even see if my finger tip would go in but it feels like it could. I do get mild pressure on my lower abdomen/ pelvis area but it’s off and on and I think it’s just baby. 2nd pregnancy, and I feel lots of kicks and movements. My next appointment is on July 1st with my midwife fyi
