    DD2 saw my chiro from 2 weeks and the colic vanished straight away. It was like magic. You could see her legs lower from where she had them scrunched up to flat as he worked on her.

    DS is seeing him now for his neck and head and I'm hoping it will mean we can avoid surgery.

    Chiro for kids and babies rock!

    One more sleep. One more terror night possibly ?

    I've got pretty high expectations of this working ...

    I don't know what is do if it doesn't.

    Wow I'd never thought it could be so helpful. Im in Sydney, not Melbourne. Anyone from Sydney?
    I know an amazing chiro in Blaxland (Blue Mountains) if you're in that area. Not sure if she does babies, but if not she may be able to recommend someone who does. Feel free to send me a PM if you want her info.

    Well I thought I might update.

    We went to our very first chiro appointment yesterday morning and had a scan, miss As back is way out of alignment causing a few health issues. We had 2 adjustments, they didn't seem to phase her very much. I was told to start her on a probiotic for her tummy (which I already had her on) and she had the adjustments and I was told to keep her out of the light and calm. Well, she fell asleep as soon as she hit the carseat. Went home, had a feed, went straight down to bed. Only slept an hour, but better than nothing.

    Then came the dreaded witching hour which usually lasts several hours. It probably only lasted maybe 45 minutes IF that! So, spelt getting better.

    We have another adjustment and appt on Monday morning, then wednesday, then sat we have a re scan. But from the improvement I have seen already, I loveee this chiro!

    I'll update when I have more information for you all.

    It's very quick and she hasn't slept much today. I think tomorrow will tell. We have our next appointment on wednesday.

    What are the scans like? Are they xrays? I worry about radiation on little bubs

    They are heat based. No harm to bubs.

    Thanks, that's good to hear. We have an appointment for DD tomorrow. Do you think it has helped overall Lynsdan?

    A bit late I know, but DD had colic and reflux too. We started with chiro at about 6ish weeks. I can't tell you 100% if it helped or not, as I don't know what she would have been like in the long term if she didn't go, but she definately seemed happy. I also felt as if her sleep improved around then (although she did start losec around that time too, so it's hard to say which was the reason). She still goes though, and she still loves it and she is a very happy baby
