Greater than one weekThis product worked great for my daughter. She’s been suffering from constipation weekly since starting solids around 6 months and she’s 15 months now. We tried other probiotics, prunes and lots of fiber nothing worked good enough to regulate her. After one week with this product she’s regular and no more constipation. This is by far the best probiotic for my little so happy to have found it. I highly recommend anyone trying it out for their child.

> 3 dayThe product is very good. The only fault I see is that some of the individual packets come almost empty. I have been buying this product for a few years now. At first this did not happen but as of a few months back this is always happening. I hope they read this review and look into the matter.

> 3 dayI give this PRODUCT 5 stars HOWEVER We received an EXPIRED packaged and the box was OPENED! I’m not happy with this. I love this brand as it helps my son have normal baby poops and not hard constipated poops where his face turns red trying to push out a poop. I’m really disappointed that we received expired product and the box was opened. Do better.

> 3 dayMy one and a half year old daughter has been constipated since I can remember. We have tried EVERYTHING from karo syrup to a suppository. We would be lucky for her to go once a week and when it did come out it was BAD! Since starting this probiotic she went 3x this week with no pain! This is a game changer and exactly what she needed. Wish I would have known about probiotics sooner!

> 3 dayMy 3 year old has been holding in stools for months. We dealt with encopresis with his older sister and knew we had to get this taken care of quickly. Laxatives alone was not working. I saw on a review that these helped within 2 weeks of daily usage. I was desperate so I ordered some. We got to the 2 week mark and still didn’t see a difference. Finally at 3 weeks, he started having normal stools! No more streaks of poops in his diapers all day! I think the combination of this and chocolate ex lax helped. We started with half a square every day, then every other day and now I don’t even think we need to use it anymore. I’ll be keeping these packets in our daily routine for a while. I never leave reviews but I had to for this.

> 3 dayOur 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.

> 3 dayMy 3 year old has struggled with constipation for about 2 years. It’s been really bad for the last year. My pediatrician wanted to put her on Miralax last year but I declined and tried everything to modify her diet with no luck. My toddler became very picky and diet was not going to be enough sadly. At her last visit we decided it was best since we had to use a pedi enema the week before and I was never going to put her through that again! After a week of Miralax I found this product and made the switch!!!! Amazing!!!! She gets it 3 times a day in her morning, lunch and dinner beverages! She is going more regularly and softer movements!! I don’t know if it’s a coincidence but her eating has been phenomenal as well! We were even able to potty train without issue which my pedi didn’t want us to try yet due to her bowel troubles!! I have this product on auto delivery and I’m so happy to have found this!

> 3 dayIve tried a lot of things and I really wanted to find a natural way to help my 22 month struggle less with pooping but it wasnt happening. I finally agreed to try the Culturelle for kids - weve been giving it to her with her nightly bottle for several weeks and it seems to be helping. She definitely still struggles a bit with pooping but shes holding it less meaning its less painful for her to go and shes going more regularly so we just bought another - box. Were pleased with the results. Will continue to buy it for our little one as long as we keep seeing results. Id definitely recommend it.

> 3 dayTHIS REPLACED MIRALAX FOR OUR DAUGHTER. And yes, it worked. She struggles with constipation and holding and then has what my wife and I lovingly refer to as scream poops. Take her to the Dr, then a pediatric gastroenterologist and they put her on a cap of miralax a day. Thats A LOT for a little person. She acted weird on it, pain, tummy rumblings and diarrhea. So we stopped the miralax. Big mistake as we were right back in scream poop land which is horrible for all. Then I decided to try this as a replacement. We give her 3 packets a day. I mix it in a little water in her juice cup (2 fingers) and then add 2 fingers of prune juice. This has been a godsend without all the horrible miralax side effects like cramping and behavior issues which she 100% had. As an experiment, I took a capful of the miralax for 2 weeks everyday to see what she was going through and I felt like an awful parent. I had cramping, dizziness, just generally weird feelings. I hated it and Im a pretty normal 41 year old dude with little complaints and a regular build. VERY grateful to have found this for our daughter. * 3 month update: still using these 3X per day and loving the results. Morning, noon and night. Have it on auto deliver.

Greater than one weekThis product has been a lifesaver. My toddler had so many issues with constipation and because the pooping process had been painful a couple of times, he would then try to stop himself from going #2, making things even worse. I was at the end of my rope, since he was refusing prune juice and any other food that could help with the situation. I had to resort to suppositories, which worked, but are quite a traumatic process for both him and myself, and definitely not a long term solution. These packets took 5 days to start working, but since then hes had a bowel movement every day or every other day! My sanity has been restored. I add one packet to a little bit of water, make sure its dissolved, and then mix that in his milk. I seriously cant recommend this product enough!
