gas, gas and more gas...tmi...gross..

Help..im dying...both babies have gas...and now the dogs..I can't breathe! ugh...

anyhow..what besides mylicon can be used for gas?
its not easy rocking 2 babies at once and mylicon does not really do a thing.

Re: gas, gas and more gas...tmi...gross..

2 oz of chammomile tea with a little bit of brown sugar, it is GREAT

ETA- let the tea bag seep only until the water is lightly colored, not toolong, maybe abour 25 seconds

You have to use the Mylicon drops consistantly for them to work. But the good news, if it's coming out - that is a good thing because then it isn't stuck in their bellies.

I would sometimes just use a bit of warm water (I boiled a pot and kept it in the fridge then warmed it when I needed it). I also used Gripe Water which I think helped. Also sometimes if you've been trying to burp them and nothing is coming out, just changing their position (ie - lie them down then pick them back up, or you just stand up) often helps get the bubble out.

You can try gripe water. We used to use it and I think it helped.
