Question by Sushibug: Will probiotics help my 20 week old gassy baby? ?
My son has been on Zantac since about 6 weeks for reflux, he is also very gassy and cries alot. He hasn’t slept well since birth, waking in the night from 2-8 times. I was taking fenugreek and Blessed thistle to increase milk supply (I’m nursing) but then he started pooping over 10x a day green and frothy, I stopped the herbs a week ago but he still poops alot although not as much and its still green.
I’m at my wits end, we are getting no sleep and I also have a toddler so sleeping during the day is out. I’m wondering if the proboitics might help? We already give Zantac, gripe water, colic tablets, nothing really sems to help.

Answer by mega-mom
green frothy poop, lotsa gas.. total symptoms over horemilk/hindmilk imbalance.
nurse him one one side for like 30 minutes, making sure that the first breast is empty
then offer the second, this happens because of an oversupply of milk.
go to “kellymom” or “LLLI” and look up “oversupply, we are dealing w/ this right now too
