Daddy knows best.............sometimes

Earlier this week Emerson had been unusually fussy!! We never rush to over medicate her simply to silence her pain, especially when we do not know the catalyst of the pain and if there is no fever or bacterial infections antibiotics are not the answer either, therefore in an attempt to alleviate this fussiness Daddy did what he knows best...... he adjusted Emerson Wednesday and it WORKED. Thursday she woke up a NEW baby! Now in these pictures she looks as if she does no wrong but trust me she has had a rough week, I think she just enjoys being adjusted especially when it is done by Daddy!!! In the top picture Daddy is conducting a scan to look for subluxations and in the bottom two he is actually adjusting her cervicals (these are located in her neck).... SHE LOVES IT!!!

Now this post is NOT meant to serve as an advertisement for chiropractic care but rather a friendly tip!! Prior to Chris' chiropractic excursion I would have never known about the chiropractic role in pediatrics but many parents will agree that this alternate care has been a lifesaver. Chiropractic care remedies everything from colic to bed wetting and many illnesses/issues in between and it is all done without medication, which is great. Why would you want to medicate these little guys especially with all the bad publicity around cough syrups and drug recalls.
