Probiotics and infants?

Anyone use probiotics with infants for tummy issues???

Where did you purchase and how well did it work???

Any advice is appreciated.

Re: Probiotics and infants?

I use probiotics. Since my boys were a few months old I always put it in their morning bottle. I feel it helps keep them regular. They are now 15mon. and I still give it to them 1x per day. They had a milk protein allergy so I had to make sure to get probiotics with nbo traces of dairy. I bought them at Sherry's health food store in babylon.

My new baby is 2 weeks old.
Is that too young?

I have ped appt tomorrow and will ask first before use, but I thought some of you may have experience with them as well.

I used them with both my boys when they were infants. We bought them from my accupuncturist.

We started at 3 days old. I got antibiotics when in labor so my DD got it an and basically it killed all her good gut bacteria so she was gassy and bloated.

They worked great. I bought ours, "Udo's Choice INfant Pro-Biotic" at the health food store

DD is now 9 1/2 months and I have been giving her probiotics since she was 8 weeks. We use this brand sold in the refrigerator at Vitamin Shoppe:
