Ok, I'm going to open a can of worms here. I have taken both my sons to the chiropractor since day 2 after birth. Both had spots in their neck that were out due to birth. How does 40#'s per square inch sound to you? That's the force on their necks during delivery (especially if your water has already broken). These spots being out can cause headaches that they can't obviously tell you about. They quit crying when held because you bring comfort even if you don't bring pain relief. Also, like some of the other posts, my son had a dairy allergy and then a systemic yeast infection at three months that we didn't know he had until he started breaking out. Forget going to M.D.s here. You will have to search for answers outside the box so to speak. I learned a lot from the local health food store and did a lot of trial and error. Homeopathic remedies ultimately helped along with high doses of probiotics. Today he is allergy free. And I still take my sons to chiropractor as needed. They are 3 (4 in July) and 5 and both know when to tell me when their backs hurt. I never doubt them and they've always been right. A good chiropractor can direct you in the right direction. ...
