Wow- what a change after treatment #1 today. The baby with the distorted head
was a brow presentation; frontal bone protruding, and parital bones
compressed sideways. The BF-friendly osteopathic physician did very gentle
manipulation. I videotaped the baby before and after and it's clear that his
suck improved. Before, he couldn't breathe and suck in a coordinated manner.
After, he downed 2 oz. from the exact same bottle that he couldn't manage 20
minutes earlier, then latched onto the breast and did about 5 minutes of
fairly good nursing. Stay tuned for the next episode...
