I've tried that the last 3 days and it makes my 10 week old son miserable but I'm not sure why?? It makes him super constipated and he grunts and cries. He hasn't had it since 6 pm yesterday and he's totally fine now.
We've been using the little remedies drops and they seem to be helping. I agree with having a burp cloth around - it's going to come up with some extra!
Honestly we just used the Walmart equate version of infant gas drops. She was super fussy around week 2 so we have her the smallest dose before each feeding. She was great and felt so much better! We did that for 3 days and now she only gets it when she's really fussy and won't burp or has major gas that makes her cry.
She's pretty perfect now though and those worked just as well as the more expensive kind.
