Our hv is suggesting we consider this for our grouchy (but lovely) dd who is almost five weeks old. Has anyone tried this in the past and is it worth the money? She's quite colicky at times and doesn't find it easy to settle (our dd, not the hv ;). She's on colief at the moment and has improved since she started taking it. Thanks in advance

Hi ladies, i am desperate with getting some sleep, can anyone recommend a co in wandsworth area or around? I am willing to travel

Not exactly in the location you asked but we went to a co in Caledonian rd that made a big difference to our lo's fractiousness. After the first session he slept through the night and has done so pretty much ever since. We took him when he was 4 months and he is now 7 months. He had 4 sessions I think. She is quite a lot more expensive than other co's but seeing as it helped its the best money I've ever spent! She was recommended to us by a friend of a friend which is why we chose her. I didnt feel comfortable taking him to a random person whose name i virtually pulled put a hat. Her name is avni trivedi and has a website. Google her.

Used it for both DS1 (stuck in birth canal) and DS2 (cord around his neck - digestive issues) and it really helped. There are some charities in london (check out the Osteopathic Centre for Children) who do reduced price sessions for people that cant afford the full price.

I believe the osteopathic centre for children mentioned in the previous post is in Wandsworth.
