XP Colic Calm and reflux

Just wondering if anyone had tried this product. LO is gassy and has reflux. Eats fine, eats great actually... But is a spitter. It's been getting worse as he is refluxing in his sleep and gagging. It's scary and heartbreaking. We sleep him in a rock n play which he is rapidly outgrowing. 8 weeks tomorrow almost 13lbs and really tall.

Anyhow, thoughts/stories/experiences w colic calm would be greatly appreciated. I'm nervous about giving him any meds orally, but he needs some relief!

LO is exclusively breast fed, I am gluten and dairy free already.

Thanks in advance for any input!

  • I've tried this a couple times it doesn't seem to take all the pain away but does provide enough relief to allow him to fall asleep. Only downside is its black it taste like grape but if LO spits up that stuff it's so dark and can stain it also makes his poop dark.

  • My LO is super gassy and I give him this at night and it works great

    It's been a lifesaver for me... Works much better than gas drops and gripe water. I agree that the downside is the dark color that stains clothes and makes poop have black streaks in it. I try not to use it unless she absolutely needs it.

    I would talk to your Pedi before using any kind of medicine. LOs pedi did not recommend Colic Calm or Gripe Water.

  • We use it usually in the evenings before bed because that's when DS is the gassiest. It works great for him. It doesn't work all night, but gives him relief enough for a couple 2.5 to 3 hour stretches of sleep. The color is obnoxious because it can stain though.
