Hi everyone
You may remember that about 2 weeks ago I asked for input for a baby
who was extremely unsettled and seemed to get frequent pain which
prevented her sleeping or settling.
Thanks to those of you who gave suggestions - we have found some
quite successful.
A few people suggested seeing a chiropractor - mother had tried that
before seeing me, and had found no improvement (much to everyone's
disappointment).
After a two weeks on a dairy free diet, baby is much more settled.
She still gets pains, but less frequently and severely, and is
sleeping better. Mother has also been using a vitamin supplement with
iron, and is going to try stopping that as well to see if there is
further improvement.
I'll keep you all posted.
