What is the Best Swaddle for Hip Health?

When it comes to swaddling for hip health, the best swaddle is one that supports the natural "frog" position of a baby's legs. This means allowing the legs to bend up and out at the hips, fostering healthy hip development, and minimizing the risk of hip dysplasia.

The "Frog" Position: A Must for Mini Movers

Hip-healthy swaddling isn't just a fancy term; it's a necessity. Babies' legs need the freedom to move in a way that mimics their natural, in-utero posture. The "frog" or "jockey" position, with hips spread and knees bent, is crucial. While snug arms in a swaddle help calm the startle reflex, the legs should never be tightly wrapped or pressed together.
