HELP! He HATES the car!!!

[~Jayne~]

Nox,

I'm not sure if anybody has suggested this earlier but have you thought of taking him to the Chiropractor? Also, does he have reflux?

My first born, had reflux & screamed her lungs out until she was nearly 12 months old in the car, every single journey, even strapping her into the carseat was horrendus. Her paed said that when they are rearward facing it puts pressure on them to make them contract in the stomach area & it makes them feel uncomfortable so that's why she screamed. Then my 2nd bub had a very bumpy ride during delivery & screamed in the car from 6 weeks onwards & I took her to the Chiro because she was so bruised & battered at birth & he said her neck was out. It didn't happen overnight, but she did get better in the car. So maybe that's an option?

Good Luck!

Love Jayne

Thanks Jayne we have been seeing an osteo but not for about a month. So you have reminded me that I should make him another appointment and maybe that could also help.

I still think that he would be soooo much happier if I could get him forward facing!!!
