Uneven thigh rolls?

Took a picture of my 9mo earlier on while she was standing up and have noticed how uneven her rolls are on her thighs and bumcheeks. I've attached picture that I took earlier on, is this something to be worried about and to mention to health visitor/GP?
Remember reading a few months ago that thigh lines should be kind of even as if not it could possibly be hip dysplasia?

Hi no answer I’m afraid but we’ve just noticed our 16 month old has a deep crease on one side and none on the other. I think I’ll ring the HV to see what she says. From what I’ve read it can be a sign of hip dysplasia but can also be nothing so fingers crossed! Have you spoken to anyone yet?

My 18 month old is almost identical! Had a scan a few months ago as yes it can be a sign of hip dysplasia however there is a way to check I’ll find the diagram...

So the thigh creases are not actually a concern, it’s the gluteal creases that need to ‘match’ up I guess which my little girls do and yours seem to look ok.

Is she walking?

Thanks for the diagram, very helpful!
Will have another proper look tomorrow now I've seen the diagram to see if her bum lines properly line up.
She's crawling and pulling herself to stand/cruising along the furniture but not walking yet. Thanks againGrin
