Hi Kari

It's funny, that's when we get the majority of our smiles too is first thing in the morning. I also got a few from both of them last night after a bath. Nothing sweeter than seeing your baby smile

Acidophilis is a friendly bacteria that lives in the intestines. Here is a little snippet about it...

The bifidobacteria, including B. infantis, B. bifidum and B. breve, should represent the largest population of beneficial bacteria in babies, whose immune defences are not yet fully working. Babies pick up these friendly bacteria from their mothers during their passage through a clean and healthy birth canal. Studies show that B. infantis was found in approximately 60% of full-term newborns who were born vaginally and only 9% of babies born by caesarean section. Formula fed babies also have significant differences from breastfed babies in the composition of their gut microflora because the heat used to pasteurize formula kills all bacteria.

And here is a link to the stuff that I use...you can find it all over the web..Probiotics Blends > Udo's Choice™ PRODUCT INFORMATION > Udo Erasmus Webpage!

It's really helped Keiras stomach and gas problems. There is a lot of info on the benefits of it if you google it. Basically it helps keep their digestive system healthy and helps to build a strong immune system. Works great for her!

Hi Kendra - Thanks for the info. I'll have to ask my ped. about it. It sounds really good though. I mostly breastfeed, so I wonder if she needs it, or maybe I should take it, and then it will get to her. I do supplement occasionally with Similac, so maybe she does need something. It just seems like the gas really hurts her, and gets her tummy all tight and in pain. I like that it's a natural thing and not a medication. Hope you are doing well.
