How can she afford all those meds and a dermatologist if she can't continue
with the CS treatment?  I have found that if one visit helps, 1 or 2 more
totally resolves the problem.  This is what I would recommend.  Is it an
insurance coverage problem?  Talk about the cost of abm feeding. She has
given all of the other treatments several times to work, why not give
something that *did* help some more work.

Ha! there is that sign again that baby is still doing something wrong.

 The mom
>never expected not to breastfeed, is very comfortable with her own body,
>cries when she thinks about this not working.

The moms I have worked with who *finally* go for CS treatment whole
heartedly always wish that they had stayed with it at first, avoiding a lot
of pain.

"I think we need to throw everything out and start over... but with what??"

Cranio Sacral treatment a couple of more times.

"How long have you seen deep bruising and fissuring
take to heal?"

Not long once the cause is resolved.
