..to try this for my daughter..Help

[Fryib]

hello,

quick background -
I have two children, son aged 3.3 and daughter aged 15 months.
my DD has always been difficult. Very clingy, wingy, easily upset. To the point she will cry if a stranger says hello or looks at her.

Two of my close friends have second children who are the same age as her (within wks) and they dont behave like this.
Even if i go to walk out of the living room to the kitchen she starts cring, and gets sooo upset.

Im a SAHM so she doesnt get left with anyone else exept me and DP (possibley relevent?)

A friend at a stay and play mentioned today that she has used a cranial osteopath on her sons and it seemed to calm them and she claims they became more content, happy etc (the wonder cure?!!

So AIBU in considering booking her in for a session, (at £22.00 I might add,) to try and help her. Or is this just a huge rip off, and she will eventually become less stressy and upset all the time when shes ready?

maybe i just need to keep repeating "this is just a phase......."

Thanks

3thumbedwitch - my bad - I lumped it in with all the "alternatives" so to speak that don't involve actual drug medicine

There is no denying that it has helped us and I am no lentil weaver, it helped me after a car accident and it helped ds, it has helped my mum ......

It also makes sense to me as your body is all connected e.g many years ago I cut my foot very badly, it ended up with me walking on the side of my foot for several months and this affected both my ankle and knee and the muscles surrounding those joints, I then further hurt myself and had to have my ligaments replaced in my knee - if I hadn't cut my foot it is unlikely I would have had to replace my ligaments but my body got used to working different muscles to the ones that it should have been doing with my altered posture which meant the ones that would have "held" me more together weren't there and I did more damage to myself in the subsequent accident than if I hadn't cut my foot.

Therefore when the cranial osteo says to me that ds' sticky eye is do to with tension around the back of his head from his birth it makes sense. (to me) although i can see that it wouldn't to everyone but i reckon everything is worth a go once. I took ds because I am a Laaaazzzy caa and really disliked having to doze him up at 5 weeks with infant gaviscon to help with slight reflux and wind. Now I don't have to so afaic its a win win for us!
