Re: terbutaline; probiotics for infants

[Guest guest]

Hi Roseanne,

I purchased a simple infant's probiotic and followed the dosing for my

newborn daughter after I was treated with numerous antibiotics during her

delivery and after, and was of course nursing. I mixed the powder with

cooled, boiled water, until it dissolved completely and used a syringe, like

one from Tempra, or other OTC medicines for kids. I did it very slowly and

she actually loved it and it wasn't/isn't a problem to get into her, even

now, a year later.

Good luck and congratulations.

Lori

Re: terbutaline

Argie, Caroline, and ,

Thanks for your replies. I really appreciate it. I have been

following the diet throughout this pregnancy, so, hopefully that will

help.

- thanks for the pool info - I'll definitely keep them out of it

this Summer. Can you tell me the best way to get probiotics into their

bodies? I've been wondering about this for a while. Should I just wet

my finger and put it in the probiotics, and let them suck on it? I

don't want them to choke, but I definitely think they should have some

(I'm on antibiotics for a UTI). What is an appropriate dosage/times

per day? Also, how do you ferment breastmilk and what's a keifer?

Would putting the probiotics directly into their mouths be just as good?

Thanks,

nne

Thanks, Lori - I didn't know they made probiotics for infants - I'll

pick some up as soon as I'm done with bed rest ) Thanks.
