EP. 26: Do Babies Really Grow Out of Colic — Or Into Something Deeper?

You've been told your baby will just grow out of the colic. But what if colic doesn't disappear—it just evolves into chronic ear infections, speech delays, sensory issues, and behavioral problems? In this episode of Motherhood Aligned and Assigned, Dr. Serena Coffman and Dr. Veronica Schiltz, nervous system specialists, discuss how a stressed-out nervous system impacts infants, causing issues like colic, reflux, and sleep disturbances. Through the real-life case of Baby Titus, they reveal how birth trauma—even from natural births—can overwhelm the vagus nerve, disrupting digestion, sleep, and emotional regulation. Discover why "waiting it out" steals precious bonding time and how neurologically focused scans and gentle chiropractic adjustments release nervous system stress, leading to better sleep, digestion, and overall happiness for babies and families. They emphasize the importance of early intervention for lasting health benefits and offer a compassionate prayer for mothers navigating these challenging beginnings. 00:25 Introduction01:24 Case Study: Baby Titus10:45 The Role of the Vagus Nerve12:52 Healing Through Chiropractic Care14:48 A Prayer for Mothers Connect with Veronica:WebsiteInstagramFacebook Connect with Serena:WebsiteInstagramFacebook
