@oneosteo: Is Your Baby Struggling with Latching? Here’s Why! 👶💙 Babies with latching difficulties often experience one or both of these underlying issues: 🔹 Palate misalignment affecting the suction tunnel 🍼 🔹 C1 vertebra (atlas) misalignment, disrupting the Vagus and Glossopharyngeal nerves, which control the latching reflex The way a baby is born can directly impact these factors. Birth trauma (forceps, vacuum-assisted delivery, prolonged or rapid labor, emergency or planned C-section) can lead to nervous system imbalances affecting feeding. Even positioning during delivery can play a role! Sometimes, post-birth trauma can also affect the first vertebra, further compromising the latch reflex. 💆‍♀️ Osteopathy for newborns can often restore proper latching within one session, with stabilization in 2-3 sessions in most cases! ✨ If your baby is struggling to latch, consider a gentle, holistic approach! #osteopathymalaysia #baby #pediatrics #kids #development latching
