How Probiotics Can Help Protect Baby’s Gut

Today I wanted to talk about how probiotics can help protect baby’s gut. Annelyn has been struggling with eczema on her inner elbows. I read that eczema could be a sign of bad gut health. She has also had issues going to the bathroom for the last couple weeks. Her bowel movements were stickier and harder for her to get out, plus they were not happening as often as they should be. I was excited to try Evivo breastmilk probiotics to help with her eczema, bowel movements, and to make sure I am providing her with all the support early on to set her up for a healthy, long life.

Once I started giving her Evivo probiotics she started going more regularly plus they were back to their normal consistencies. I am sure it will take a little while to see an improvement in her eczema, but I feel better that she is getting probiotics now to help with her gut health. These are the probiotics I used these with Prestyn and really liked them.

I use these breast milk collection cups on the opposite side that she nurses on to collect the breast milk to use with the Evivo probiotics. Our breastfeeding relationship has been a struggle. Unlike my boys she does not use me for comfort nursing. She prefers a pacifier. Which has caused my supply to be lower then I like. I have noticed since I began using these cups that my supply has increased which is great. When she switches sides, I also switch the collection cup to the other side.

Why Baby’s Gut Health Matters

Bad bacteria in baby’s gut is linked to a higher risk of autoimmune and metabolic issues, like colic, eczema, allergies, diabetes, and obesity. When more good bacteria is present in the gut, it creates a strong, protective wall and crowds out the bad bacteria. Unfortunately, today, 9 out of 10 babies are experiencing a disruption in their gut, causing more bad bacteria to thrive. The first 6 months of life are so important for immune and metabolic development. The composition of baby’s gut microbiome plays an important roll in this process.

How Probiotics Can Help Protect Baby’s Gut

Evivo is the only baby probiotic clinically proven to restore the good bacteria, B.infantis, reducing bad bacteria in baby’s gut by 80%. Giving Evivo Probiotics is super easy, just mix one satchel with 3-5ml of breastmilk.

Put the breastmilk/probiotic mixture in a feeding syringe and give to your baby.

    I would have never thought that a baby needed probiotics!

    This is so interesting. I just watched a Netflix documentary where a segment was dedicated to the biology of breastmilk and how only 1 type of bacteria was found in babies' digestive systems, and how this bacteria didn't allow any other type of bacteria grow. I think this is a step in the right direction for those babies who can't have breastmilk. Pinning for later :)

It was an adventure to get there but we finally di It was an adventure to get there but we finally did. The place we normally park was closed for repaving so we went on the hunt for a new place. It was a nice secluded spot that we might just make our new spot. The kids had a blast, I am glad it stays shallow here plus we didn’t have to worry about waves.

Project 365 photo catch up. Can’t believe it is Project 365 photo catch up. Can’t believe it is almost the end of May! Had my hair trimmed yesterday, and my eyebrows tinted. The eyebrow dye last for about 4-6 weeks. It gradually lightens up over time. I included the photo of Annie after she did her “makeup”. This project 365 isn’t looking like I thought it would. I was hoping to use my DSLR more but end up just using my phone and using random photos I take during the day. Nothing specific or set up pretty, but it works. I’m still capturing memories.

Beautiful beach day. Got a little hot at one point Beautiful beach day. Got a little hot at one point and the water was too cold for me to get in but just kept dipping my feet in the water to cool down. Unfortunately I got a terrible headache in the afternoon so had to cut the trip a little short. Next time I need to remember to bring medicine. Not sure what’s been going on lately but the last few days I have gotten headaches in the afternoon.
