Myla's Body Overcame Colic and More

Sweet Myla was struggling. She was very tense and stiff, and clearly uncomfortable. She only slept an hour at a time and the minimal sleep she was getting, was not restful sleep. She would grunt and wiggle the whole time, trying to find relief.

When she was awake, Myla was constantly crying and whimpering from being so overly exhausted. She could never get the quality sleep she desperately needed to help her little body grow. She never wanted to be put down, but even when being held, she just screamed. It would take hours to get her calmed down, just for the cycle to begin all over again.

She has four older siblings, so Myla’s mom and dad knew this was not just fussiness; there was something deeper going on. They tried all kinds of things to help her: stretching, massaging, diet changes, gas drops, warm baths... and still, nothing was working. It was so hard for her parents and siblings to watch her suffer and feel so helpless.

As the best parents do, Mom started searching for more answers and help for Myla, and she found TFC on a Google search. They hadn’t been to a chiropractor before, so they weren’t sure how it would go; but they were hopeful we could help Myla.

During the early days of her care plan, Myla’s family saw her body begin to heal. She slept two hours, then three, then even all night! And more than just sleeping longer stretches, she was getting restful sleep: no more grunting or whimpering. She was finally getting the rest she was needing.

Calming Myla’s nervous system has given her and her whole family so much more peace. Her mom shared, “As parents, to be able to go from basically survival mode, to being able to enjoy our sweet girl, has made all the difference. Myla sleeps so much more restfully (which means we are all sleeping much better). She is also becoming the happiest baby. The grunts, whines, and screams have been replaced with smiles, giggles, and coos. When she does cry, she is so much easier to settle.”

Myla, you have the best parents who advocate for you and believe in your body’s ability to thrive. We’re so excited to see all the amazing ways you continue to grow, precious girl!
