Chiropractor

We are continuing our quest to dry up Kade's ears and get this kid back to normal. So on Tuesday we took the little guy to the chiropractor. We've read and heard from other people that their alignment and nerves can prevent fluid from draining from his ears. Chad took him and I met them at 5:30. When I got there, they had started already and there was my little boy all sprawled out on his tummy...getting his back aligned. It was so cute!

The chiro said that his hips were out of line as well as some other joints. She said it was from his "hard birth", where we had to suction him out in a hurry and he became disaligned from it. Kade was pushing his shoulder against the cord so whenever I pushed, we had some serious problems that could've developed. They suctioned him out in a hurry. Tomorrow (Thursday) we are going back in to see if her alignments held. We are hopeful for some relief within the week, as the chiro is expecting. She also showed us how to massage his sinus passages (which she thinks are infected also) and behind his ears. This will help drain the fluid and relieve his pressure.

Chad is pretty skeptical, but I remain hopeful.

I have changed Kade's primary physician so we will see another ped. on May 22nd. I am looking forward to another opinion on his ears and can't wait for his 4 month checkup. We will start discussing SOLIDS...oooohhh how exciting!!
