I'd say it's too young, and more importantly, things like Yakult and Vitagen have more sugar than pre/probiotics so I'll say to just stay away from them as much as possible - even for adults! If you're looking to introduce more pre/probiotics, you can look into other alternatives like yoghurt or those supplements suitable for younger ones - although I'd think that most of them requires minimum 1 year old. If bowel movement is an issue, try other things like introducing more fibre (fruits and veg) or food known to help like prunes!

I will not let my 10mth old baby drink Yakult. Firstly it is artificially sweetened , never good to start them so young with sweet stuffs. Also bad for the baby teeth. Secondly I am not sure if Yakult may cause the baby to have diarrhea? I think you can give baby probiotics drops instead of Yakult. I also use the brand biogaia. You can also give unsweetened baby yoghurt once a while but Yakult is defintely a no for me.

I prefer not to because it is really sweet. there are probitic drops for infants if you're thinking of feeding probiotics. One that comes recommended by many pd will be biogaia. You can get them at Watson's or guardian

Better don’t give, perhaps wait until much older then give. If your LO constipated, u can give prunes, more fiber fruits,.. some mommies i know they give biogaia (probiotic).

I don't think so I only gave my kids once they are 1 years old and older

there are yoghurts specially for baby. you can get that instead! :)

Personally don’t recommend that. Yes, is too sweet for baby.

Better don't. It's very sweet for them.
