Thanks for the replies girls.

Ryn - Excuse my ignorance, but what will an Osteo do in this case? I don't know much about them so haven't thought to book in... MG
Hi MG,

Hope you've had some sleep!

An osteopath can help to calm a baby by releasing any physical stresses/strains that might be putting pressure on their central nervous system (ie. the brain and spinal cord). We usually think of pressure/problems with the central nervous system being obvious and serious problems like milestone delays or seizures etc. But there are often subtle signs that the nervous system is a bit off kilter - reflux, colic, poor settling/sleeping etc. These can occur because the "on" and "off" signals for digestion, relaxing, waking and so forth aren't occurring correctly. These may be due to compression of the head/spine during birth (it is a rather squishy ride!) or perhaps something that develops later.

Hope that answers your question, feel free to post or PM
