Do baby probiotics help with gas?

Parenting FAQs

Babies can get gas for several reasons, so it’s difficult to answer broadly that all probiotics will help with alleviating gas.  Probiotics can promote a healthy balance of gut bacteria, supporting the digestive system when there is an imbalance of good and bad gut bacteria. It is important to talk to your healthcare professional before giving probiotics to address gas issues in your baby. They can provide guidance on the appropriate probiotic strain, dosage, and duration of use based on the baby's specific needs and health condition.
