Culturelle Kids Probiotic + Fiber Packets (Ages 3+) - 24 Count - Digestive Health & Immune Support - Helps Restore Regularity (Packaging may vary)

Our kid has struggled with regularity, mostly because he refuses to eat either fruits or vegetables OR drink juice. Hes peculiar, and it leads to difficulties with pooping. We had been trying the fiber gummies but then he went through a couple weeks where he wouldnt eat them at all. So I began looking for other options. We first tried this about a month ago, using one pack per day, and while I havent seen him pooping more regularly (he goes every 2-3 days usually), he does seem to struggle less -- there have been fewer tears, the poops are less chunky and while firm, a more consistent consistency (sorry, cant think of how to say that better), and there has been less strain on his anus (in the past, after a particularly difficult or chunky poop, there would sometimes be a little blood where it had to stretch too far). We are going to try another month of the Culturelle to see if the trend continues, and I may up the dosage to twice a day to see if there is any change. Some other parents complained about the powder not fully dissolving and that their kid wouldnt drink it. We havent had any issues in that regard, but our son is used to powders in his milk. Weve used a toddler supplement powder to help ensure hes getting nutrients during especially picky phases, and I also crush up his chewable vitamin into his milk (he doesnt like eating them, and gummy vitamins dont usually have iron) so there hasnt been a problem with him drinking the Culturelle. Now Ive only ever added it to milk -- not juice or water -- so I dont know if that helps mask the flavor or the graininess, or if my kid is just truly a champ at drinking powdery milk. :P UPDATE: Since one pack of powder alone was not really giving us the results we were hoping for, we tried adding back in fiber gummies to his diet along with one packet of Culturelle a day and its been working great! His poops are more consistent, smaller in size (because hes not getting so backed up before he goes), and there have been almost no tears at all. If one pack of Culturelle a day isnt working for you and you dont like the expense of doing 2 or more packets, try adding in the fiber gummies; Lil Critter brand is 45 days worth for about $7.

I am so happy about this product! It’s a life change!! Don’t question it, just do it!! My baby is finally popping every other day without no pain!! JUST DO IT!

Wow. My daughter (1.5 years old) has been severely constipated since she was 5 months old. The doctor recommended Miralax and she’s been using that for 9-10 months. I hated it bc I couldn’t understand the ingredients in Miralax but at every appointment, my doctor just kept saying “she’ll grow out of it” (meaning the constipation). I did some more research bc I wanted to try something different for my daughter and I stumbled upon this product. I read the reviews and saw MANY other families in the same situation as mine. Thank goodness I purchased this product. My daughter has been using this product for about a week and a half and it has changed the game. I am so disappointed that it took me this long to find it and also very disappointed that my doctor NEVER recommended a probiotic and/or fiber supplement.

My son has sensory issues and doesn’t eat food. Only takes milk and pediasure. So he has trouble pooping a lot and since I have tried this on him to help him get fiber in his diet he has pooped a lot better since.

These have been sent from above. My 2 year old struggles with chronic constipation. Regardless of how much fiber he consumes. He used to go days without pooping. When he finally did, it would take several hours of him avoiding us and holding it in, visibly uncomfortable, until dad forced him into a froggy position while I massaged giant, rock hard turds out of him that would make him bleed and his rectum prolapse (the prolapse would reverse itself almost instantly but still). We have been using these religiously for several months and as long as he takes at least 2 daily he poops at least once daily without a struggle nor diarrhea, just soft passable stools. The powder seems to be flavorless because kiddo ate it once by itself and seemed unbothered. If your kiddo struggles like this too I highly recommend these.

Use this if your kid is on antibiotics frequently!! I’m writing for parents of kids with a similar issue to mine: my 5 yo had perianal discomfort / itchiness daily, for months. It was internally (the canal) not externally so with testing we were able to rule out perianal strep, yeast, pinworms, and hygiene. She was checked for fissures (none) and she wasn’t constipated. We started cutting out foods that we thought she might have developed an allergy to (it wasn’t that). At my wits end, I ordered this product, although she had no issues passing BM regularly, I figured it couldn’t hurt. Within 36 hours, the itchiness disappeared. We saw a GI specialist. It turns out she had a bacterial overgrowth due to having been on antibiotics 5-6 times in 12 months (for repeated ear infections and strep). This probiotic replenished the good bacteria in her gut and resolved the issue. We have her on it daily, and the issue hasn’t returned.

Was looking for something to make it easier for my newly potty trained 2.5yo to go so she wasnt needing to sit too long on the toilet waiting for things to happen. This makes it a little too easy, gives her diarrhea. Ill be trying something different after we use these up. She also suddenly started waking up at night crying as if in pain. As soon as I stopped using this product, the pains at night stopped. I believe this was actually causing pain in her digestive tract. Another reviewer mentioned his son experienced the same thing. Beware when using for younger children.

I love this product and will continue to buy it. It really helps my son. He was having difficulty having a BM. Now that i have added this into his daily routine it has not been a problem.

This product has worked and worked well! I now have peace of mind that my 2 1/2 year old grandson is pooping every day instead of every 4-5 days. It’s softer and not the huge hard turdies with blood mixed in now!!! I’m a happy grandma!! I mix one packet in 1/2 of a small smoothie and he drinks it right down. Somedays I’ll give one in the morning and one in the evening but most days just one. They work!!!!!!

Im just started adding this to my 3 year olds applesauce & she had no idea. We are still potty training & she is scared to have a BM in the toilet. So I needed to add some extra fiber in her first & this has been great.
