[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am going to give one piece of advice which may make me sound kind of crazy, but have you tried giving your child probiotic supplements? Back when my daughter was a toddler, I read a study on probiotics and behavior in children that I cannot find now, but that was enough to make me start giving her probiotics. She was also a VERY colicky baby, and studies suggest that colic may be related to the amount of good bacteria in a baby's gut, so I thought there might be a link. My experience is only anecdotal, but she went from being an overly sensitive, anxious toddler with EXTREME stranger anxiety and very poor sleep to a kid who thrived in a new preschool (no tears!) and is my little sweet helper. (Being sensitive, but not oversensitive, makes discipline beyond easy, since she cares so much what others think.) Maybe it was just time (and I'd like to say good parenting) but I just wanted to throw the odd idea out there that some of it might be a physical issue.[/quote] Not according to more recent double blind studies.
