Welcome to YT, and sending some positive thoughts and prayers to you and your baby. I have just recently gone through an FHO surgery on my baby for Hip Displasia. After her surgery, she had bone re-growth where the femoral head was removed and required a second surgery of the same hip. I think our case of that happening is very unusual. They also didn't give me much hope that she would use her leg again, also unusual. However, with some great support and encouragement from YT, and physical therapy, I am happy to say my baby is doing great, and using her leg well. For the first time ever, she stands on her hind legs to say hello to me and will sit up for a treat. That is something that was too painful for her to do before. She has a ways to go but I couldn't be happier with our progress. The FHO surgeries usually have good results. I don't want to scare you with our story, we just had a bump in the road. If you have the option of a specialist, I would recommend that route as well.
