XP: Recommend probiotic for baby

erstwhile+maven

Hi all.  My DD was a NICU baby and was on antibiotics right away.   I'm not sure but imagine the antibiotics could have messed up her intestinal flora-balance.  She's got a pretty bad case of GERD and is on Prevacid.  Since introducing Prevacid, she's had some gastrointestinal issues - gassy, constipated but with runny green stools.  I cannot help but believe that some of her issues, including the GERD, could be improved upon with the introduction of a probiotic.  Any recommendations?

We had pretty much the same issues and DS has been on probiotics since about week 6. He also had dairy sensitivity (which is possibly going on with your LO too) - so we got a dairy free version. A lot of infant probiotics are in a milk base - so watch for that! We have this one that came highly recommended from our Lactation Consultant: https://pureformulas.com/therbiotic-infant-formula-21oz-f-by-klaire-labs.html?CAWELAID=532163361

BTW - It doesn't take much. He's over 5 months old now and we're still on the same bottle!

Our pedi (who is crunchy like us) recommended Jarrow's babydophilus (spelling??) because it's a powder and is easy to mix into anything.
