You’ll never get to the root cause of something as long as you believe the lie that “it’s normal.” I am not implying or insinuating that that lie is told with malicious intent or deceptive motives… I believe it’s genuinely birthed out of ignorance.

Babies don’t cry 😭 for no reason (I know that’s grammatically confusing 🫤🤷🏻♂️🤓, but you get it.). It’s their communication. It’s how they express unmet needs.
•
So, call it colic, or whatever label you want to give it, but know that the screaming and crying has purpose & intention… to get your attention… to let you know something is off, or no right.
•
And, it’s usually deeper than gas or reflux… because those have causes too.
•
We’ve found that it’s most often rooted in dysregulation within the nervous system 🧠 that can usually be traced back to birth trauma(s) (induction, meds, complications, c-section, intervention, etc.) that were never adequately addressed.
•
Oh, and when it comes to dysregulation…. time heals nothing, & nobody grows out of it; our bodies will just compensate to survive. And, while one set of symptoms may seem to disappear, the problem remains, & actually just grows into something else… often with deeper roots & higher stakes.
