I'm a Believer

I love my baby boy but he was quite a challenge for me. He screamed and fussed and was never really happy. He ate every two hours and the longest stretch of sleep we got at night was 3 hours. Between that and his reflux, I was at my wits end. After an entire day of crying (every moment he was awake) I decided to take the recommendation of a woman in my mom's ward. She told us her daughter had taken their baby to the chiropractor and he was able to basically change the whole demeanor of the baby. The belief is this. When babies come down the birth canal, their bodies are ravaged and thrown out of alignment. He believes that lots of their crying comes from the pain their bodies are in as a result of this. I took Jack in to the chiropractor last Wednesday and I'm here to tell you I'm a believer. He did some slight adjustments with a small tool he has especially for infants. That night Jack slept for 8 hours!! I thought maybe it was a fluke, but the shortest time he has slept at night now is 5 hours. He is so much happier, cries so much less and he is actually enjoyable when he is awake. I know what you're thinking, this sounds ridiculous, but I'm here to tell you, whatever he did worked for Jack and even the sleep I get at night now is worth the money spent at the Chiropractor. I'll post pictures of this happy boy later but right now I'm enjoying him too much!
