Hi Paula,

Here are some thoughts:

-does baby need 'bodywork'? CST? Chiropractic?

-use positions that allow baby to control latching, no pushing on head etc. (laid back bf).

-when wounds don't heal, it can be a persistant staph infection. Therefore, mom might

need to cleanse wounds with soap and water several times per day, apply bactroban,

might need a systemic antibiotic.

- to help wiggliness, again laid back positions, bf in a sling, darkened room
