Baby probiotics

Anyone else give their baby probiotics? It's suppose to help babies with constipation, colic and tummy troubles. I started giving my baby probiotic drops for constipation after introducing solids. I use the brand BioGaia probiotic drops and LOVE it! Works soooo great! The only problem is how super expensive it is. The small tiny bottle cost almost $30, and it only last a month is used everyday.

If anyone is also giving their baby probiotics, which brand are you using? I'd like recommendations for another kind that's good and more affordable. TIA! =)

  • I don't use probiotics but I know your baby is older and on solids so maybe talk to your pedi about starting yogurt....two birds, one stone. And much cheaper. 
  • If you are doing any type of cereal Happy Bellies brand has pre and probiotics in their cereals.

  • I stopped using biogaia a while back. LO was on it so early I'm not sure it helped her gas. We had her on it at 2 weeks of age until month 4. The only difference I noticed was that her poop smelled like yogurt. It still smells that way. 
     
    I might go back to it when we start solids in a few weeks. I don't know. Any port in a storm when the time comes, I suppose.
