Bio Gaia Drops/ Gerber Soothe Colic Drops

I started giving my daughter the Bio Gaia Drops, now called Gerber Soothe Colic Drops this week because she is always so gassy.  I really think they are making her worse because she was screaming for hours last night and I could tell she was in pain.  Did anyone that's used them experience them making the baby worse?  Did you stop using them or did you continue?  If you continued, did it get better and after how long?  I'm leaning towards stopping because I hate to see her in pain like that.  Thanks!

I use them and DD has gotten better with her gas, but I don't know if it's the drops, the increased massage/yoga stuff, or just as she ages her digestive system matures. Are you doing the massage and leg bicycling? Other gas drops?

I've been doing some bicycles as long as she'll tolerate them.  What is the massage?

How old is your baby? I think all newborns are gassy. It takes a few weeks for their new digestive systems to get all the kinks out. I complained about gassiness to our pedi and that's what he told us. He said not to adjust anything in my diet (bfing) until,several weeks of gas. I bought the colic drops and stopped eating dairy. He's 7weeks and much better, but of course he's older too....and maybe his issues worked themselves out. Oh and also we give him a long (15 minute) bath every night now. I literally sit in the tub with him submerged. I think it really helps his stomach before he lays down for the night. Plus its fun for me because he loooooves it.
