first of all this Xray is not only thigh Xray. i can see 3 different bones and each has a fracture. if this baby is 8 days old. than there could be only few reasons of fracture, traumatic which in this case seems least possible, birth stress fracture, or spontaneous fracture during pregnancy Due to Osteogenesis Imperfecta which is quite possible in this case. good care to prevent bone deformity is treatment and needs investigations to confirm diagnosis and treat the underlying issue.
