BioGaia Protectis Baby Probiotic Drops for Infants, Newborn and Kids Colic, Spit-Up, Constipation and Digestive Comfort, 5 ML, 0.17 oz, 2 Pack

I purchased this product upon Doctors & pharmacists recommendations but I'm not comfortable giving my baby a product that contains sunflower oil. Its just sitting there on the shelf.

I specifically looked for a probiotic that could help my baby have hydrated, soft stools instead of dry, clumpy poop or diarrhea. We had tried MaryRuth’s baby probiotics, but unfortunately they didn’t make any noticeable difference. After researching, I found that two strains had the evidence I was looking for: BB-12 and DSM 17938. My baby was 6 weeks old at the time, combo fed but mostly on Enfamil Gentlease NeuroPro Optimum. I found DSM 17938 in BioGaia and BB-12 in Culturelle Baby Probiotics. Based on my research both of these strains had the best chance at making my baby's poop the proper hydration level. On day 1, I gave full doses of both to introduce the probiotics quickly. Unfortunately, he had a lot of gas and cried quite a bit as his gut adjusted. It was a rough day, but I was willing to push through because I wanted to improve his gut health. On day 2, I switched to half doses of both products. His poop was already improving, it was no longer the horrible dry paste it had been, although it still wasn’t perfect. By day 3, his poop had a better color and was noticeably more hydrated. The intense fussiness from the initial probiotic introduction was gone. By day 4, his poop was softserve consistency, and he had significantly less gas. He was also sleeping longer stretches and no longer waking up in obvious discomfort from stomach pain. Since then, I have continued giving half doses of both probiotics daily. His stomach has improved so much, including during the day. He is no longer constantly crying from gas. I honestly wish I had started this from birth because it would have saved both of us a lot of stress. Update: He is now 2 months old, fully formula-fed, and still having perfect yellow, soft, slightly seedy stools that look very similar to breastfed baby poop. Two weeks of probiotics made a huge difference in his digestion. He sleeps 5 hour stretches at night and no longer wakes up in pain from gas. His poop is no longer green, dry, and like chalk. To clarify, I am using Culturelle AND this product together at half doses daily, not BioGaia alone. Update 2: He is now 3.5 months old and his poop is still consistently yellow, soft, and seedy. It even smells a little like yogurt. His poops are perfectly hydrated, not watery, but also not dry, chalky, or difficult to pass. My original issue seemed to be that his body wasn’t properly hydrating his poop, which left him constipated and in significant pain. Using these probiotics along with Culturelle helped resolve that within about a month. They are expensive, but for us they were absolutely worth it. After about a month of consistent use, his gas pains improved dramatically and he became much better at farting comfortably, lol Final update: Baby is a year old and eating a varied diet. I no longer have to give probiotics but I am about to have another baby in a month and I already have these ready to go. I am confident enough in this product I genuinely expect to get sleep this time around and I'm not scared. As soon as she is born she is getting her probiotics so I can avoid chaos again.

Es lo más bueno para los niños

It’s perfectly for babies 👶, thanks ♥️

Worked well for our little one! We used a little spoon to give it to him while he was taking a bottle - just in case he did not like the taste! He tolerated that well! We noticed a difference in his colic episodes (went away but we also started him on an acid reducer too) and just overall being comfortable! It’s definitely a little pricey but in my opinion it is worth it to not have to see our little one hurting and crying often!
