BioGaia probiotic drops?
Has anyone used them for their newborns? I was gifted a box of the drops, and it says it can be used from birth, but not sure if they're beneficial or good to give this young. My son is 4 weeks.

I used them for a month as got a free sample too, didn’t rate them personally
I’ve noticed a difference in my son’s weight gain since taking them. He had a few days of antibiotics at 2 weeks old and has failed to gained weight since, put him on the drops to rebuild gut health and he’s doing much better

Hi. I used it since my boy was 5 weeks for about 1 month and a half. Mainly because I wanted to see if it helps with belly pain, difficulty pooing and painful wind as my boy seemed to struggle. The drops would calm him down in a few hours, he started to sleep better through the night because he was not struggling so much to poop (even though he wasn't constipated, he was just grunting a lot and seemed to struggle to get it out). So I think they helped him through those times. Biogaia have extensive research on their probiotics, including on premies (I asked them to send me all their research and they have and it looks good :) ). GPs and HV don't really have an opinion on probiotics, but in other countries are quite popular and routinely given.
