Pls can someone help!
My daughter is now 6 months and, since bout 4 wks she has never been settled. She started on solids at bout 2 1/2 months,as she never seemed bother bout milk.She eats really well (5 meals a day)and loves food.
I just can not seem to do anything to get her to settle.
She cries/screams on and off all day long,but you can never tell what she wants.One minute she is playing happily then she just strats screaming out of the blue.With my older daughter she had a different sounding cry for what she wanted, but this time round i cant seem to figer it out. She goes to bed eaisly at bout 7pm but wakes then at 11pm and then all through the night. I have tried giving her milk and water through the night but she never wants anything(only to be nursed back off).
The crying/screaming just doesn't stop.I am finding it hard, so is my 2 year old daughter.

Hainzy - I'm so pleased for you. Hows she been since Thursday?

Hainzy · 20/02/2008 13:50

I can't believe it she is a diffrrent child! Only 1 treatment i had, if things do take a turn for the worst then i have to go back, but so far so good.
Since thursday she has slept every night right through (7-7)and is much more full of life.
I am now getting to know her and know her cries. It has been nice to spent quality time together.Even my older duughter has noticed a difference. She keeps saying she not crying all the time mammy.

I would recommend it to anyone.
She has also cut her bottom 2 teeth.

Wow, I am really really delighted that it worked for you. What a relief it must be to be able to enjoy your little girl. I am deffinitely going to try it for my ds who is similarly miserable and hard work. Does she now fall asleep easier?

So glad it worked for her. Did they say what particular part of her body was causing the discomfort or was it just the head they worked on? Thanks for keeping us up dated!(sorry to admit this but I was kind of seeing if this would work for you before trying it myself!!!!)

Hainzy, thats fab news

meandmyjoe, It really is something i would recommend.

she now sleeps through the night and will just fall asleep when she wants to. Where before i would have to work hard at trying to get her off to sleep.

They said that the right back side of her head was slightly twisted and that the frot of her head was pushing towards the back causing a build up of pressure.

Its hard to explain but she's a totally different baby. Give it a go, nothing ventured nothing agained.
