What 99% of Babies Struggle With… And Doctors Are Missing

As a mom, you absolutely know your baby best!! So when a provider tells you at every checkup that they’re “perfectly healthy,” your gut may be telling you something completely different. That something is off or isn’t quite right. Maybe it’s the constant fussiness, the fact that they are struggling to sleep, or the nonstop reflux or constipation. You’ve voiced your concerns, only to hear it’s all “normal.” 😩But what if those signs aren’t just quirks or phases? What if they’re actually neurological? 🧠Recent research from the Journal of the American Osteopathic Association found that 99% of newborns, even those considered healthy, exhibit signs of somatic dysfunction. What does this mean? That subtle but significant physical stress can disrupt nervous system function from day one! 🤯 This hidden stress can start as early as pregnancy and compound during birth, especially in cases involving long labors, interventions like forceps or C-section, or prenatal stress.This kind of stress doesn’t always show up in standard pediatric exams. That’s because most well-baby checkups are designed to track growth and milestones, not neurological function.I know this all sounds crazy, right?! That this many providers have potentially missed what 99% of babies are struggling with. BUT at the same time, maybe this is exactly what you needed to hear as a mama. We know we did!
