Jan, this baby probably has some nerve compression or vascular compression
caused by displaced cranial bones.  During birth, the bones move around to
get through the birth canal - we all know that.  Afterward, they're supposed
to all line up right, but sometimes they don't.The hypoglossal nerve is the
main motor nerve controlling the muscles (plural) of the tongue, and the tiny
foramen it goes through is frequently constricted after birth. The jugular
vein also goes through one of the tiny foramen, and constriction here causes
vascular changes in the entire cranial area.  Cranial osteopaths (DO's with
extra training) very gently move them back into position, using feather-light
pressures.  The results are nothing short of spectacular!  MDs in my area are
skeptical of this theraputic modality, while DO's are at least aware of it
and some are highly trained and skilled in it.

Good luck!
