Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a condition that might lead to needing a hip replacement if it's not caught early. Find out what parents can do to make sure their baby's hips stay healthy and prevent any potential problems.    Healthy Swaddling and Hip-Healthy Sleepsacks at International Hip Dysplasia Institute    Send your questions to [email protected] or submit at drwendyhunter.com  Find products from the show on the shop page.   *As an Amazon Associate, I earn commission from qualifying purchases.    More from The Pediatrician Next Door:    Website: drwendyhunter.com   Instagram: @the_pediatrician_next_door  Facebook: facebook.com/wendy.l.hunter.75  TikTok: @drwendyhunter  LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/drwendyhunter    This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast  IG: @reddrockmusic  www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.
