My son has been going to the chiro for over a year. He can now do the AK with

no problem. The other day he was upset because he didn't have an appt with her

when I did and I didn't know that there was something wrong. He said his neck

hurt and wanted to see her. She found his shoulder out. He is 4.5 years.

I totally believe it. My three-year-old has been telling me for over

a year now when he needs an adjustment. He's always right. After the

adjustment he'll say, " Thank you, Mama, I feel better now! " I can

usually see immediate relief in his eyes during those times. If you

get your kids started young, they can tell when something isn't quite

right.

Im with you 100% on chiro for infants. Its essential that the

type of scoli is determined first and I too have yet to see anything published

on the effectiveness or safety of chiro on growing spines (congenital or

infantile). If anyone out there has published info, please pass along to CAST.

Thanks,

infantile scoliosis treatment

Subject: Re: More questions

She's always carried upright :) I use a

homemade woven wrap (basically just a length of cloth) and carry her in various

tummy-to-tummy positions. Now that she's got more core strength and better head

control, I'm starting to do some hip carries and back carries too. With the

woven wrap she doesn't slouch - I snug it up so that there's no room for that.

She does tend to lean to the one side even wrapped, but I'm getting better and

more creative at wrapping so that she can't ;) The other thing I use to carry

her is an Ergo Baby r. It's a soft-structured-carrier, basically a soft

front-pack (like the old snugglies), but supportive. She can't slouch in that either

as I cinch it up tight to my chest/belly.

I'm actually not that " crunchy " lol. I kind of fell into attachment

parenting because it just feels right to me, and the babywearing is something I

wanted to do as it's good for the babes, and very convenient (hands free so I

can tidy, cook, take care of the pets, and chase around my son and foster

kids). I've had a few people recommend chiro, but I'm just not comfortable with

it. I did a lot of looking into it, and any " research " I find that

supports using chiro on infants is put out there by the chiropractic

association - hardly unbiased. On the other hand I found a couple reputable,

solid papers that were not affiliated with the chiropractic association - these

studies showed that chiro is not proven effective in treating infants or

children and that it can actually cause harm. I'm really glad it's worked for

some parents, I'm just not comfortable with it myself.

Physio on the other hand? Bring it :)

> Tonight I took baby Audrey to see my cousin so she could have a look at

her back. My cousin knows nothing about baby scoliosis, but is very familiar

with curvatures and contractures from her work, and is brutally honest so I

knew she'd tell me whether she saw what I'm seeing, or if I'm just being

paranoid and seeing things that aren't there...

>

> She could clearly see the curve in Audrey's spine, and where her ribs are

starting to bulge out. So it's not my imagination - baby's back is getting

worse :(

>

> I'm going to call BCCH again on Monday to see if I can (politely!) push to

get an appointment booked for Audrey to see the orthopedist. If that's not

successful, I'll call her pediatrician and put pressure on there.

> I can't find the words to explain how distressing it is to watch my baby's

back get worse right in front of my eyes, and she doesn't even have a diagnosis

yet, or even an appointment to get diagnosed! I'm just sick over it :( So is my

DH :(

>

> So, some questions - for those Canadians who travelled to the US for their

babies medical treatments - did you need to get a passport for your babies?

Hubby and I have passports, but baby does not - should I be applying for one

for her now?

>

> As for contacting the Shriners Hospital in SLC - is there any point in

doing that when we haven't even got a diagnosis yet? Really, all I have at this

point is a single set of xrays showing a 13 degree curve. However my baby's

back is VISIBLY getting worse, to the naked and untrained eye.

>

> I just feel like she's getting worse and I'm losing time; yet my hands are

tied while I wait for her to see the specialist and hopefully get a diagnosis

so that we can start actually talking about how to get her better.

>

> It's so hard watching her get worse and not being able to DO anything

about it!

>

> Also, a possibly silly question - is there anything I should/shouldn't do

with her in terms of positioning or activities? I asked the ped this, and she

said no, just live life as normal. I told her I try to minimize the time baby

spends in positions that seem to encourage her lean (like her car seat and

bouncy chair), and she said that was fine, but didn't give me any other advice.

Do any of you babywear? I wear Audrey a bit (in a wrap or an Ergo), and have a

couple woven wraps I just bought on their way in the mail and I plan to wear

her more once they get here. I would think the wearing would be good for her

(supported in a good position for orthopedic/posture development and builds

core muscles)? But it seems she's straightest when lying flat on her back, so

maybe I shouldn't be wearing her and should have her laying flat a lot? Ack! I

just don't know!
