After checking thousands of newborns, here are the signs we see over and over again... signs that most pediatricians dismiss as "normal":
❌ Latching difficulties - Can't latch, painful nursing, falls asleep immediately at breast
❌ Asymmetrical movement - Head always tilted to one side, only turns one direction
❌ Torticollis - Neck stuck in one position, favors one side
❌ Colic - Inconsolable crying for hours, especially in the evening
❌ Digestive issues - Reflux, gas, constipation, screaming during feeds
❌ Sleep only when held - Won't sleep flat, wakes screaming when laid down
You've been told these are "normal newborn things." But they're not. They're signs that birth trauma created interference in your baby's nervous system, specifically in the upper neck where the brainstem and vagus nerve are located.
Birth puts 60-90 lbs of compressive force on your baby's 7 lb body. Even "easy" deliveries create stress on the spine and skull. When that stress affects the top of the neck, it disrupts the nerves that control 👇🏼
🤍Sucking, swallowing, and latching
🤍Head and neck movement
🤍Digestion and the gut
🤍The ability to self-soothe
🤍Sleep regulation
The result is a baby who struggles to eat, can't move symmetrically, cries inconsolably, spits up constantly, and only sleeps when held upright.
And parents are told to just wait it out... Not here at Harmony! If you nodded your head reading through this let start with a free phone consult. Link in bio 🔗
