I was traumatized by how much my daughter cried and couldn’t be consoled no matter what. I will never get over it. My heart goes out to all parents of colicky babies.

[pdingle]

Please please consider food intolerances.... my baby's 6 weeks of constant screaming
was due to milk and egg intolerance (coming through my breast milk). After trying everything else someone suggested I try stopping dairy and egg and within 24hours he visibly relaxed and fell asleep. Desperate for others to know this!

[MoviesAreMyThing]

Yeah my daughter had colic - no gas issues, no reflux, nada. This was simultaneously the darkest stage of my mental health during this time. Wish we could have gotten this kind of help, literally anything wouldve been better than what I had to experience (complete overstimulation all alone without any assistance/guidance). To this day I still have anxiety and experience phantom cries, and my daughter is almost 2 (in about 4 months). And I still get physically/emotionally triggered hearing infants cry at the grocery store or mall. One of the most horrific experiences of my life.

My first-born had colic and absolutely screamed for three straight months. Family was thousands of miles away. He'd get so stiff, his arms and legs and he was in such pain. At almost exactly 3 months, it was like someone hit a switch and he became an absolute angel. Never another problem at all. Now he's a 3rd year PhD student in electrical engineering. But, good thing I'm a baby lover. I had 4 more, but no others had colic, thank God.
But can we just take a second and say how doggone CUTE this little tyke is??? Beautiful!

Bless the physical therapist. You can tell she loves what she does. She’s so gentle and caring.

My son screamed for 3 months. I was walking the hall in our apartment and an old man told me he was in the war and it was a lot easier then dealing with his colicky baby. I will never forget how that made we feel so much better.

[deilugo]

My heart goes out to all the babies and parents out there going through this rough stage in life. Babies are precious and all we want is for them to be okay. The stress of being a parent takes a be toll on us, and I just pray to all for the strength to get through it together. Don't give up on your partners or baby's, this stage shall pass.

Every baby is unique! My son was “stuck” for a long time (until emergency C-section) and cried nonstop until a family member who’s a chiropractor gave him a VERY mild adjustment at 3 weeks. He literally stopped crying instantly & was a happy baby. I was speechless! So, whatever works 🤷🏻‍♂️

[fionaneale]

She is a genius. Years of experience and so much knowledge. The baby responded to her immediately.

[TheDiva]

That nurse is an angel!!! I almost cried when she was encouraging the mom. 💝

[marjolewis]

My oldest son had six month colic and didn't sleep the night through until he was 9 months old. The lack of sleep was a personality changer, it was brutal. We survived and he'll be 40 this month.

As a mom seeing a relaxed little nugget is soooo beautiful and pleasing. Watching him relax is ASMR to me

[DenaInWyo]

Torticollis= a kink in the neck. We've all had them, and some of us severely. Imagine being a newborn with a severe one. Poor kiddo. Watching him relaxing to the point of falling asleep in her hands in just the first minutes of the video...thank goodness for this woman helping him.

[YTMe]

My parents often told me that I wasn't a particularly fussy baby, but hiccups were certainly a thing for the first few months. I have a friend whose daughter was so colicky and fussy, out of absolute exhaustion, she just sat and cried with her baby. Her daughter is a ray of sunshine now, a joy. It gets better. Hang in there mom!

[amandaredd]

I've been a pediatric nurse for almost 15 years and have obviously seen loads of torticollis babies (and colicky ones too!) I can't imagine how it must feel for them. That's flipping awesome that this clinic offers someone specifically to massage! When my own son was born, he cried for like an hour straight without any relief from what my husband and I. Then, one of our physicians came in on his newborn round (still in the hospital), picked him up, draped him over his arms (belly down), and was swinging/rocking him while talking to my husband and I... he was quiet as a mouse. That was amazing to us and my husband asked Dr Smith "can you come home with us?" 🤣 Yeah, the nurses all refer to him as being "The Baby Whisperer"

[stormiweathered]

My grandson had torticollis. His ped never found it. Luckily at 6 months he spent the day with me while momma & daddy had to attend a funeral & I took him to a friend's birthday party for her daughter. There was a friend of hers who was a ped nurse & spotted it instantly. She gave us exercises to do. Within a couple of moths it was resolved.

[yeahisaidthat]

THIS is why I only had one child. She came out screaming and didn’t stop for a year. She’s 21 now. Very happy and healthy. I still get anxiety when I hear a baby cry.

[hankbug]

I am a firm believer that every newborn should be seen by a licensed professional massage therapist or chiropractor. We wouldn't expect grown-ups to pass through a 10 cm space without any damage to our skeletal systems. Childbirth, while natural, is a traumatic experience for babies. I'm so glad to see this baby get relief and to reassure the parents they aren't at fault.

[rideremii]

The massage lady absolutely rocks!! Every mum needs to hear how amazing they are but especially the way she said it with such confidence right at the mother! I wish more people were like that x

[noeoleole]

I love how the lady helping with all this advice and all, she tells the mother she's doing a great job (minute 7:50) in that especial way too... when I was discouraged with my first premature crying baby, this nurse lady I would go for help/advice she would tell me it's partly my fault, because babies can sense if we're tense and I needed to relax. Jeez, had forgotten that and remembered when I heard this nice lady saying those kind words of encouragement to a mother in need, it just brought tears to my eyes cause it's exactly what I needed to hear! So simple and beautiful! That's what needed, it's not too much to ask...
