those of you who use colief drops

[bbyno1]

Did they work well for your LO?I been using infacol and hasn't helped much so got colief today. I just read the instructions and it says to put it in the bottle 30 mins before the feed?! That's quite hard when she isn't in any routine with her feeding. Is this the only way to do it or is there any other way?

I tried them and they weren't any help for my LO. I breastfeed and they were so tricky to give as well. I put him back on Infacol but he seems to be starting to learn how to burp so is a bit better.

We used colief with Henry.... it did work we think but it did turn his poo green And as his feeding was not a set routine it did make it difficult but we could tell when he was starting to get hungry so quickly did it then!

We used Colief drops and found a massive difference, we would make up 3 bottles in advance and put 2 drops in, they had as it was 2 drops they had to be in 4 hrs before so we always had bottles ready for the day. x

i use dentinox which you can add to the feed, theres no time restriction though,just squirt it in with the dosage syringe, can't say ive seen colief by me,i only find infacol or dentinox it does get ginormous burps out of dom though and he won't take it straight thats why i got it because it could go into his feed.x

We're using them for Alex ad they have helped so much! We make up the bottles in advance and add two drops as it says on the box and then store them in the fridge for a min of 4 hours x

We used colief for a few days and they worked well -- as a few other posters mentioned, we just put drops (3) in the bottle beforehand (an hour or so, but can be up to 12 hours (no more) in the bottle. I always take the bottle for the next feed out (he likes it cool, but not cold) when he has had his feed, so would add it then. We also found that putting him in his bouncy chair (without vibration on) helped his reflux, as he was sitting upright, so bottle, chair, see if he wants more bottle, then a bit of playtime (to distract him from possible colic/reflux)....

best wishes

It's apparently because the colief breaks down the lactose in the milk making it easier to digest... it took Henry AGES to get normal poo again lol

We used colief for about 6 weeks and it was great! I was really scared about stopping it but everything seems fine now! As for putting it the feed half an hour before, I never read that part and always put it in right before I gave her the bottle! She was fine!
