Introduction	When my daughter was diagnosed with hip dysplasia I had no idea what to expect, in reality I knew nothing about it and didn't even realize babies could have it! After we realized there was something wrong with my daughter's left leg one night when she was 9 months I googled possible reasons her left leg appeared shorter and read way too much about hip dysplasia. There is a lot of scary facts out there, pretty much all sites repeat the same info, but harder to find is personal experiences of parents who have been there. That is why I created my blog. I hope it can help someone out there facing a simular situation. We are so lucky that hip dysplasia is a treatable condition and our daughter has adjusted so well. I hope other families going through the treatment can see that they aren't alone in the daily struggles of having a baby in a spica, brace or physical therapy.
