Colette,
Congrats on the new baby! It sounds that craniosacral treatment worked
well, so I would suggest keeping with that on a more regular basis.
Sure was a long labor with lots of contractions on the baby and the
brow presentation, all could be leaving baby out of alignment in the
skull area. It sounds like possibly an overactive letdown too, or one
that baby is not able to handle well. So I would suggest positions
that make that easier to handle like laid back bf or baby sitting on
your knee facing you.
I am not thinking food sensitivity, however I don't think it will hurt
things for you to stay off the foods you said, if the projectile part
of it got better.
If baby is sensitive and jumpy, perhaps wearing baby would help, I
like the kangaroo mother care way of carrying, with baby upright
between breasts and not curled up in a sling. I think that would help
the sensitivity to noise and the digestive/spitting issues.
I am not well versed in homeopathy but Rescue Remedy seems to be well
recommended, and could be given to mother, and maybe baby too?
