Mylicon.

posted 13th Jun '12
Does it work? My 3 week old is really gassy, and has horrible tummy pains. I don't know what else to do..someone recommended this to me, and I was just wondering if it works, and if it's okay to give to him at 3 weeks. Or does anyone have any other advice on what works?

We changed his formula from soy to nutramigen. It helped with his poop, but he's still so fussy and gassy. I feel awful for him   I just want him to feel better.

But TIA for any answers/advice!

How much? We haven't bought it yet, so I don't have the bottle or whatever in front of me.

Well I started taking fenugreek to increase my milk supply. My six week
Old had been on mylicon. the fenugreek makes folks gassy and it seems that the gassiness side effect passed to
DS thru breastmilk, and honestly, he has no problem tooting or pooping now and hasn't had mylicon in days.

my little guy is super fussy and gassy, or at least he was. i switched him to Similac Sensitive formula and it worked! he stopped screaming in pain and he poops normal! he still has some gas, and gas pains, but to help with that (if i remember, it actually works) i give him gas drops BEFORE i feed him!

I put the drops right in his formula. It seems to be working right now. We'll see how it goes the rest of the day..I may try giving it to him before. Thanks!
