does anybody give their kid(s) probiotics?

[laurack]

If so what brand?

since Matilda still complains about her tummy hurting I think we'll try a probiotic. I might also try to cut out lactose for her and see if that helps.

but which probiotic should I buy?? there are so many and they all claim to be the best lol

We do. They are fancy prescription ones, though, so I can't help with the brand name. His doctor put him on them at the height of the random, cyclical vomiting. It seems to help regulate him.

Yes, I do. We used gummies but I have to stop those now because Violet has a cavity. I'm going to try the animal parade chewable ones.

I am a big believer in probiotics for all.

If dairy is a concern I'd specifically look for one with L. rhamnosus, which is used to digest lactose.

I'm a big fan of their products in general so I'm sure they'll be good probiotics!

I used to but fell out of the habit.

We buy Lifeway kefir smoothies from Costco that they love and have about once a week. I should probably start back up a daily dose though.
