Okay so has anyone used infants mylicon for gas relief? I have noticed that Noah can get pretty gassy and was wondering if this stuff really worked or not? I wanted to get some suggestions/advice before using it with him. Thanks!

I've used it with all 3 of my boys. Sometimes I thought it helped, and other times I wasn't so sure. It's also sold under the name Little Tummys Gas Relief Drops.

Yes it worked well with my son. I just gave it to him before feedings. I was so thankful to my brother-in law for buying that for me when my son was born . He is 8 months now and teething..Good Luck!!!

Have I used it?! I LIVE by that stuff! seriously saved me many a nights, Tayla used to scream she'd have such bad gas, no more, she must even know when she gets it too, cause she gets excited when I get the dropper ready.

So did my son Kegsmom. He loves it. He thinks it is juice. LOL..It is good to laugh sometimes about the joys of motherhood. I love it. I would not trade it in for anything....

Used it with my first 2 gas bags and I don't know if it worked or it worked as a placebo for me.... but I always gave it to them before nursing or bottle.

Mylicon drops (AKA simethicone) are effective when they actually reach the gas bubbles. Problem is they can dissolve along the gastrointestinal tract before reaching them and be ineffective.
If the gassiness is a real problem, please talk to your ped as Noah may be sensitive to something in the breastmilk or formula he may be eating. Dr. Jeremy

I think that the mylicon may have saved my life at some point lol! I think it works, I would definitley reccommend it, it's one of the only things I feel comfortable enough using,I have never heard any risks when you use it,from what I understand it's all natural
