Re: LO with different leg lengths....?

redhead2466

Has anyone experienced this with their LO?  The public health nurse came to visit A today, and pointed out her legs are different lengths from the bottom of her bum, at her knees, all the way down to her ankles.  She said it could be hip displacement (fixed by a brace down the road) or an actual difference in the length of her legs.  She said she could not hear or feel the clicking that usually accompanies hip displacement, and to talk to our pediatrician about it at her next appt (in 2 weeks).  Of course, she is not a doctor, so she could only say so much.

Just wondering if anyone has experienced this, or know someone who has.  Or better yet, knows more about it.  My DH is really upset/worried (not that I'm not), but he's beside himself.  I've googled a bit, but want to stay away from that so as not to totally freak us out.  TIA

My DD had that. She had hip dysplasia. I would get it checked out to be sure.
