    Mine went to a chiro, not osteo, but sometimes they were a little unsettled after a session - come to think of it, it was their first session that they would seem unsettled, but they would usually be much happier the day after. I found they reacted better after the next sessions - maybe the initial adjustment makes the most changes and that's why they are a bit out of sorts?

    If your bub is still unsettled tomorrow, give the osteo a call and ask for their advice.

    I think Trish has a point. DD was a little unsettled after her first session but had a big sleep (11 hours) and was great the next day...so, so, so much happier. She was fine after her second treatment though.

    Osteopathy for little bubs?

    I took my ds to an osteo last Wednesday and although he wasn't too unsettled, the osteo did warn me that he may be unsettled, so I wouldn't be too worried

    Thanks. DD is now asleep, so hopefully will sleep it off. We had a busy day, so tiredness probably isn't helping. The osteo rang back and said it would be unusual for the treatment to cause the irritability, but she will call back tomorrow to check the little one is ok.

    How is your Miss A today Kate?
    We had an appointment yesterday and I haven't really noticed any difference in her behaviour thus far. I was warned that babies can be very unsettled after a treatment... or can sleep like a log! I hope your little one has settled down.

    I am going to make a second appointment if I feel she needs one in about a week. Are you due for a follow up visit?

    My little Miss has been pretty good the last couple of days. She had a big sleep that night, and woke up very happy the next day. I have another appointment next Tues.

    I have also cut out dairy from my diet, so this may also be contributing to her tummy feeling better.
