“They’ll grow out of it” is something a lot of parents hear when their baby is struggling.
Colic. Constant tension. Arching. Trouble sleeping. Always dysregulated.
But many kids don’t simply “grow out” of stress patterns.
They grow with them.
As their nervous system continues adapting under stress, those early patterns can sometimes show up later as bigger challenges with focus, emotional regulation, sensory processing, sleep, behavior, and overall adaptability.
That doesn’t mean colic causes diagnoses like ADHD or anxiety.
But it can be an early sign that a child’s nervous system is under stress and having a harder time regulating and adapting to their environment.
Our goal isn’t to “fix” a baby.
It’s to support and regulate the nervous system early so their body has the best opportunity to develop, adapt, and thrive as they grow. 🤍
