Let’s talk about something every new parent thinks about… baby p**p. 💩
In the newborn stage, frequent p**ping is normal… especially for breastfed babies. Multiple p**ps a day tells us digestion and the nervous system are working together well.
So when a baby goes days without p**ping, strains, grunts, cries, or has a tight belly, that’s not something to ignore or just “wait out.”
Here’s the part most people don’t hear enough:
Digestion is controlled by the nervous system.
If a baby’s nervous system is stressed, often from birth, tension, or difficulty regulating, the gut can slow down.
That’s when we see constipation, gas, and discomfort.
Gentle, neurologically-focused chiropractic care doesn’t “make babies p**p.”
It helps calm the nervous system so the body can do what it’s designed to do.
If p**p has become a daily stressor in your home… you’re not overreacting.
Chiropractic care can make a big difference.
