Motor Co-ordination Monday: Preventing Hip Displacement Babies bones are soft and take a while to stretch out normally after all that time cramped in the womb! Positioning is therefore very important in the baby years.

The positioning they recommend is designed to support normal hip development which has implications for development of gross motor skills. Julia Eggles OTR Occupaitonal Therapist
