Fussy lady

Let's be honest babers, you've been super fussy. Eating every few hours, not sleeping well, which means I'm not sleeping well either, and crying. A lot. As a new mom, it's hard to know what your new baby needs. I know what your cries mean, but sometimes you cry and nothing works. We went to a breastfeeding support group last week to work on your latch and the moderator suggested taking you to a chiropractor. Your little hands are always in a fist and scrunched up by your face, and you have a difficult time latching on the left because you prefer to turn your head right. I was skeptical. So was daddy. But we did it anyway. There has to be something that will make you happy! So Tuesday we skipped support group and went to meet Dr. Chelsea at Thrive Chiropractic. She is so good with you! Respectful of your tiny body and so gentle! She did a full body adjustment on you and even taught mommy some stretches and exercises to do with you. You're favorite is what we call "dangling" lol. We support your hips and let you hang upside-down for about 10 seconds. It's like a baby inversion table! You love it! If you're crying and we dangle you, you stop almost immediately, you smile and look around. It was crazy, almost immediately after the appointment we could see a difference in you! You went in angry and tight and came home a happy noodle! We will keep doing your stretches (you also love these cause it ends with armpit tickles!) And exercises and hopefully you will continue to eat well! So glad we were able to figure this one out. Love you baby noodle!
