The Homeopathic Coach

It is commonly thought that because babies are so young they are unlikely to have any serious structural issues. This is not always the case. Just consider the structural forces present in the birth process for your baby.

During birth huge forces are placed on the baby's head and body as it moves down the birth canal. The baby's head is normally chin to chest as this presents the smallest part of the head to allow for easier passage and the baby will have to turn and twist as it comes through. The baby's head is amazingly adapted to this process with its skull plates overlapping to reduce the head size and this is why your baby's head is sometimes mis-shapen after birth and takes some time to get back into a more normal shape.

Natural processes such as yawning, crying and sucking serve to help the head's natural re-moulding process. One of the signs of a baby who is dealing with the strains of this process, can be a baby that wants to suck all the time as it tries to allow strains to resolve. Head-banging babies and teeth grinders when older are also sometimes caused by birth strains.

All babies cry but some babies cry ALL the time or for prolonged periods, and nothing seems to comfort them. Read on, because in this article we will be exploring some of the causes for this crying and looking specificaly at the issue of reflux and what Homeoapthy can do to help.

Firstly,  I want to acknowledge those parents reading this who are going through this experience. It is not quite what you imagined when you gave birth to your baby is it? Your desire to help your child, coupled with the emotional and physical exhaustion of coping with relentless crying when you feel powerless to stop it, can really take its toll. One of my babies cried like this and for 4 months the only thing that would sometimes help was very fast forward motion in a pram. Consequentially, I walked very fast for miles and miles every day which was physically exhausting in itself. If I had had the homeopathic know-howI have now back then, I would am sure my child would not have had to cry like that! So personally it is very important to me that I can pass this information on to you.
