Infacol question

[Mrsstuart01]

My sil gave both my niece and nephew infacol before each feed (bf) whether they needed it or not. Is this something you have done, plan on doing or is there a benefit? Any help would be appreciated!

I didn't give it to Oscar at first, but when I found him hard to wind I did give. Once his back got stronger and a bit bigger he was easier to wind so I stopped giving it then. I'll do the same this time too. xxx

I think I'd only do it if it seems that the baby needs it. I wouldn't give it just in case I don't think x

I used it with my daughter before each feed when we suspected she may have colic, it really seemed to do the job. I'm going to get a bottle for this time round just in case!

No i only gave Lo's it when they had colic/trapped wind. its not something you should give unless baby has trouble with trapped wind x

As others have said if it's easy to being up the wind u don't really need to use it but if it's hard then use each feed

Same here

If you do decide to use it though if your LO needs it and it works for them, you have to give it at every feed for a while for it to work, can't just give one dose here and there and expect it to work, or so I believe, so maybe SIL was doing that and it looked like she was giving it for nothing if the baby wasn't windy at that time?
