Colic can be an incredibly distressing experience for both babies and their parents. 😣 The relentless crying, often for hours on end, can leave parents feeling helpless, exhausted, and overwhelmed. It's heart-wrenching to witness your little one in obvious discomfort, yet despite all your best efforts, it can seem impossible to soothe their cries. 😭 The frustration builds and as parents, we may even begin to question our abilities as moms and dads. 💔
BUT, what most parents aren’t told is that colic can often have a root cause related to prenatal stress 🤰🏻 and birth interventions ⚒️ that affect the vagus nerve. This can lead to the rest, relax, and digest side of the nervous system 🧠 to be “offline.”
The vagus nerve plays a crucial role in regulating various functions in a baby’s little body, including digestion, immune responses, and relaxation. When this nerve is stressed or interfered with during birth, it can lead to a cascade of challenges, including colic. 😭
Neurologically-Focused Pediatric Chiropractic care is the answer that has emerged as a drug-free, effective solution for many infants suffering from colic. 👏 Our doctors at Nova Vitae Chiropractic are trained in working with infants 👶 and can identify and address subluxations within the nervous system 🧠, leading to a very upset baby. By gently and precisely adjusting these areas, our chiropractors can often relieve the stress on the vagus nerve, helping to alleviate colic and restore a sense of peace and comfort for both baby and parents. It's a solution that many parents have been seeking, offering hope in what can be an incredibly trying time. 🎉 Visit the link 🔗 in our bio to learn more about colic and the nervous system! ♥️
