Progeria: Features of Progeria will usually become more visible as the baby ages. Newborns look normal. However there are some disorders that are similar to Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) which cause changes in utero: Progeroid syndrome with Ehlers-Danlos features & Wiedemann-Rautenstrauch syndrome (WRS), (AKA neonatal progeroid syndrome)
