Found the problem!!
Well , as you read a while ago, Sawyers car hating issue was a result of 5 vertebrae in his back being out!! See I was going nuts trying to figure out what I could do about the long screaming car rides ( or even the short ones for that matter)and how to help him, when one night I was rubbing his back and he arched his back and screamed..so a thought came to my mind to go pick up my Every Womens Herbal book to see what it said about babies( it has info for all stages of a womens life)when I read something that never occurred to me....It said a majority of the time, unexplained crying ( or colic like symptoms) can be a result of back problems and to try a chiropractor. So thankfully Brad works with one who was more than happy to check him out and sure enough it was his back out. So we started taking him 1 a week, and it would help for a couple days and then back out it went , so we bumped it up to 3 times a week and WOW!!! He goes into the car seat without crying and he'll even fall asleep in the car now even if he wakes up.... NO CRYING so far!!! He doesn't scream or arch his back when we touch it now and he only flinches a little bit when we push hard on it and when we first discovered it we only had to brush our hands across the spot and he would freak out. So I guess I am posting this so if any one else ever has this issue, they know of a not so obvious possible solution.

Oh wow! Thats so sad! poor kid! I'm so glad that you guys figured it out though. What does that imply for him later on in life?
I didn't even know that was possible in babies. Sad. I'm so glad you figured it out!
I can't even imagine! So glad that you figured it out though. I'll think twice now when Jinnie cries while strapping her in.
