probiotics?

I've seen several people mention using the Gerber soothe drops but was curious if anyone is giving their baby any other kind of probiotics. Anyone? How did you choose the kind?

Re: probiotics?

  • No. The bio one came highly recommended by my mw. It's expensive though.
  • Is that the one that's the same as Gerber? Has lacotbacillus reuterii or something spelled close to that?

    They're all expensive!

  • No idea. I think they are bio gavia or something.

    I know you can just buy adult capsules open them and rub on the inside of their mouth.
  • We use half a packet of culturelle kids to 1 oz of formula a day our pedi recommended it!! it's about 18 bucks a box but it last 2 months
  • We've been giving our c-section baby Bio Gaia since week one. He seemed to be having digestive discomfort and our midwife recommended them. I take probiotics too and I think it makes sense that they are very helpful, especially for c-section babies.
