Kate's Cranial Osteopath.
My baby hasn't grizzled once since our consult. She has just gone down for her nap which has so far lasted 1 hour! She didn't cry when I put on her jacket. She didn't cry when I put her in her car seat. She didn't cry when I put her on her change table. She hasn't even tried to rip my face off or arched her back while she screams at me once this whole morning since seeing him 
These are all total utter miracles. I was a sceptic but I am so totally converted  ------------- Jen, Charlotte 7 & Kate 3

Jen that is soooo good.
I have always wondered about taking ayja to see one sinc ei dropped her on her head at 6 days old, i really wondered if it would help, but i was scared to cos even though she didn't sleep she was a great feeder, i was was worried ti would stop that side of things lol. I still sometimes wonder if it would help, but now think it's just her personality to be a mischief, I wouldn't change her now, but do think it sooo works. I think you can rightfully be in love with him.. lol  ------------- Janine and her 2 cool chicks, Paris & Ayja

So it has now been 3 1/2 hours since the new love of my life worked his magic. Kate slept for 2 hours (even through the rubbish truck!) and she still hasn't cried or even grizzled once. This probably don't sound so fantastic for those with 'normal' babies but in the world of Kate it is just so so amazing. I have even been able to leave her alone in a room while I made Charlotte lunch!
I am just so gobsmacked at this change- I hope it lasts!
We are going back next Friday as he thinks that the reason for her 'pressure band' is because she was engaged for so long (from 34 weeks- so for over 7 weeks!) and that it will take a few visits to work through it. He asked if she had had any head knocks as well so thats obviously something they look out for when treating them as well. ------------- Jen, Charlotte 7 & Kate 3

Wow that is so great! Yay! Grizzly babies are so draining.
Elle was also engaged early...from around 33 weeks until 41 weeks...so low they couldn't even see her head so maybe that was partly why she was so irritable. The cranial guy helped her relax too, it wasn't a cure-all for us but it helped her relax her fists and neck. Hope you have a fantastic weekend! ------------- Mummy to Gabrielle and Ashley |

Great news!!!!
I've taken my little man to Osteo several times now and he such a content baby. Only grizzles when tired or hungry, doesn't really cry. My Osteo suggested taking Rex back after every major growth spurt, or every 3 months. I'll probably take him back every 6 months and see how we go. I strongly suggest Osteo for any baby ------------- A very lucky mummy to two gorgeous boys: RB 3/10/2008 JB 29/12/2009 |

The only thing I regret about it is that I never took her sooner. She has had another wonderful day- 2 naps (1 1/2 hours in the morning and 2+ hours in the afternoon) and shes just so happy. She has grizzled a few times but no crying and she just seems so content
Its just so amazing ------------- Jen, Charlotte 7 & Kate 3

Lily sees the chiropracctor regularly. She would scream in the car seat, would not fall asleep, but scream and scream until I took her out. Nothing would stop her. One chiro session and the trip home was quiet. Now we see him monthly and he tweaks things that might be a little uncomfortable and it is awesome.
So glad that your osteo worked his magic for you and Kate too. -------------
