Hi, Mommy. When my baby was just 2days old, ayaw niya po tumahan kaya we called my husband's cousin to seek for advice. Ni-recommend niya pong bilhin yan, pero hindi ko muna pina-inom kay baby kasi I have this mother instinct na baka hindi safe ito. When we had our first visit to the pedia, ininform ko si Doc about it. Sabi niya laxative is not adviseable for newborn babies if ang issue lang is gas kasi you can do burping naman. Normal naman sa mga newborn ang pag-iyak kasi that is how they communicate to us. Madalas matatanda nag-rerecommend ng Watsonal Castoria but di talaga siya adviseable mommy. Tinapon ko yung akin. Please do not self-medicate as it may potentially harm your baby.
