The drops aren't working at all.  Any suggestions?

    Bicycle legs, deep leg to tummy stretching/holding, infant massage with a warm cloth on tummy, in a peaceful/darkened/quiet environment (DS used to toot up a storm as his senses calmed). 

    Gas drops take awhile to work - you have to consistently use them (it isn't a one time thing and they work magic - kind of like OTC products for adults - most take time to work - build up in the system).

    Bicycle legs worked really well for us, and we massaged his belly with sesame oil(but you can use any oil..I just bought the massage oil they had at BRU) per LC suggestion. That worked pretty well too.

    Gripe Water, Chamomile Drops and Probiotic supplements have helped us.  If you are FF, consider using a formula pitcher with the special mixer (we have the Dr. Browns one) that mixes the formula w/o a lot of gas bubbles.  I see a big difference since mixing w/ the pitcher.
