Answer:

3

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that in this scenario this is indicative of Developmental hip dysplasia. This is a condition in which the  "ball and socket" joint of the hip fails to fully form in a newborn baby or a young child. Which is why it creates a "clunk" sound when the legs are pushed forward as the mother does in this scenario.

Answer: Developmental hip dysplasia.
