Colic, constipation and sleep problems. A two-week-old male baby had excessive crying, abdominal distension, constipation, gas and disrupted sleep. Vertebral subluxations were identified and chiropractic care was applied to reduce vertebral subluxations in the pelvis and lumbar and cervical spine. The child experienced a bowel movement immediately following the first adjustment. Continued care led to regular bowel movements, a decrease in crying and improved sleep. (11)
