Mommy's Bliss, Probiotic Drops, Everyday, Newborn+, 0.34 fl oz (10 ml)

Our 3rd baby was super cranky about gas and pooping. He would grunt and cry. We tried gripe water (does seem to help a bit) and gas drops (didnt seem to help), and lastly we tried the probiotics. Over time he started having an easier time going. After the 30 doses, we ran out of the probiotics, and within 2 days went back to grunting and fussing. He didnt go poop in almost 2 days! He was up more at night. So I came back and ordered the probiotics again, and boom! within 24 hours he started going again (hello blow out) and all is well again.Now, could this be a coincidence? yes.will I be continuing the drops because Im scared to stop them? yes.

I would have to say that after staying up late nights and trying to research what other mothers were going through with their newborns regarding gas and colicky stages, this product was a great investment. I went from changing dozens of bottles, changing formulas, and purchasing mommy’s bliss gripe water to this probiotic. It has worked miracles! I put 5 drops into the bottle in the evening feeding and give the gripe water at night. Baby is pooping and passing gas regularly. He has a little trouble at night about 9 or 10 o clock and I just rub his stomach clockwise and do leg kicks. It passes the gas easily. I would definitely recommend this product for gassy babies, along with the Mommy’s bliss gripe water!

My baby got a UTI when he was 5 weeks old, which is a bacterial infection. He had to take antibiotics, which kill off good and bad bacteria, so the doctor recommend taking infant probiotic supplements to restore the good bacteria to his system. This has been working well for us. It has an oily consistency, has no smell, and you can see little bits in the dosage (see photo). My baby tolerates this, but he does not like it. Granted, he doesn’t spit it out or cry when eating it, but he swallows very slowly. With his antibiotics, which were strawberry flavored, he actively sucked on the medicine until it was all gone then cried for more.This comes with a pretty crappy dropper which is affixed to a lid for the bottle (it comes with 2 lids, one without the dropper). I don’t recommend using this dropper. The supplier dropper cannot be cleaned because the top doesn’t come off. Further, once you’ve suctioned the correct dosage (.33 ml), there’s always a little bit that get stuck at the tip and cannot be pushed out of the dropper. Also, if you put the dropper in your baby’s mouth, and then after that put it back in the bottle (it is a lid, after all), that’s just going to contaminate the bottle with the bacteria from your baby’s mouth. I mean, seriously, think what happens with a half-eaten yogurt container that you stick back in the fridge for a week – it grows mold; well, this bottle contains a 1-month supply! Probiotics are a bacteria that live in the intestines, and help support the immune system and aid with digestion. Improper storage can either kill them, in which case you’d basically be consuming spoiled/rotten food. Probiotic supplements are intended to boost the count of good bacteria in the intestines. So it is better to take this as a single dosage, followed by a meal to help it travel down there. As with any food product, this can spoil and grow mold. After opening, it’s only good for 6 weeks, and it’s better to refrigerate it. Regardless, it cannot be stored above 77* F or it will spoil.I prefer the plastic syringe type applicators, where you can pull off the back and clean off the inside after each use (see the syringe type applicator that I am using). They give them out for free in the hospital. You need the 1 ml applicator, as the dosage is .33ml, so you fill it up to the 3.3 line.

My son’s pediatrician gave us a sample of the Gerber probiotic. It was hard to get any of the drops out toward the end of the bottle, and I couldn’t justify paying $30 every 2 weeks for probiotics. I had good luck with Mommy Bliss brand before, so I gave these a try. I was pleasantly pleased! Second time I’ve bought these probiotics and helps with my 6 month old’s entire digestive system. He struggled from reflux and constipation, and since starting on this probiotic, he is regular!

Worked wonders for my son who has lots of gas. At first I wasn’t sure because he seemed to be more upset when given to him, however after 2-3 days I noticed a HUGE reduction in his gas as well as it was easier for him to pass the gas. I recommend probiotics for all little ones. My baby is 7 weeks and has been taking probiotics since he was 2 weeks old. He was a c-section baby so he didn’t get the bacteria he needed like vaginal birth babies get. My friend recommended this to me! I tell all my friends now
