Magic stuff. I always keep in the house with a baby. Soothes "colic", aka, tummy trouble. They go right to sleep. It stains anything it touches, though. But it's worth it Aug 28, 2022

Was really hoping this would help my gassy colicky baby but it only made him choke and gag anytime I gave it to him. Even the few times he did take it down, it didn’t seem to do anything for him. Jan 05, 2020

This stuff was a lifesaver and sanity saver with our fussy, gassy, colicky baby. It will STAIN everything it touches, so use an old bib to put on when you give it. It works miracles though! Oct 02, 2019

Love this product!! Weird black color but it truly works to relieve gassiness and calm them down. Also it's a thicker consistency than normal gripe water so less chance infant will choke. Apr 13, 2019

We loved this with our allergic, colicky baby. It did calm him. However, it seemed to be sort of addictive. It was HARD to wean him off of it, and it got VERY expensive. Apr 13, 2019

My last baby was colicky and this was the only thing that did actually seem to help calm her. It was very quick relief after I would give it to her. Mar 24, 2019

Helped my poor baby’s belly immensely! Recommended by our pediatrician Mar 03, 2019
While activated charcoal (vegetable carbon) may have some health benefits, it wreaks havoc on infant digestive systems. This product severely constipated our daughter, and did not benefit her reflux. Jan 14, 2019

My son got bad colic at 2 months old and after trying so many other products, we found this! It is a lifesaver for uncomfortable colicky babies! Within minutes he was able to relax and sleep! Miracle Oct 09, 2018

Was so much advised by a doctor, but I didn't see much effect...... And the stains after the black liquid were impossible to get rid of. Sep 13, 2018

This works very well for upset tummies! Mar 28, 2018

Colic calm has been a life saver for our newborn. It works instantly and is the only product that my midwife recommended for us to use safely. I have not had any issues with the product staining. Mar 03, 2018

We did not see any results with my super colicky son. It was a mess as well since there is charchol in it. He ruined a lot of bibs with it. Feb 25, 2018

I have a very gassy baby and it sometimes makes him inconsolable. I give the recommended amount and by the time he swallows it he starts calming down! Feb 08, 2018

This’ stuff is heaven sent. Works better than Mylicon and Gripe Water for my baby! Dec 11, 2017

Love this product. Calms crying baby in minutes. Also helps passes gas easily and helps relax and sleep good. Ants it's homeopathic Nov 09, 2017

Works Great for gas and fussy babies! Mar 10, 2017

It does help to calm baby but not sure if it really helps in the long run. Worth a shot! Feb 27, 2017

I think this definitely helped my baby relax and sleep better than without during those colicky nights. The black color alarms some parents but was recommended by our pediatrician who I trust. Sep 22, 2016

Though the color of this stuff stains badly, it worked amazingly at getting ride of baby's hick up and tummy problems. Jan 29, 2016

I heard great things about this but it just didn't work for us. The black hue to this product was quite frightening when he was eating it. Almost made us feel like we were giving him something bad! Jan 13, 2016

I could never tell whether or not this really worked. The only sure way to soothe my colicy son was to massage the gas out of his tummy. I'd rub circles then lift his legs and he'd pass the gas. Jul 17, 2015

A bit disconcerting at first because it is solid black and bowel movements after ingestion can also show black, but it works great! Worth every dollar. Jul 14, 2015

This stuff is really the best. I use it along with the gas drops and it REALLY helps. Feb 04, 2015

It is black and can be scary but the product did seem to work. LO had a lot of gas problems, ended up using Hylands baby gas drops and worked just as well but not as expensive and tasted better to her Dec 13, 2014

This stuff is a lifesaver for a baby with colic!!! Its black in color but in 10mins this stuff works, I wish doctors told you about this instead of saying there is nothing to do for a sreaming baby. Dec 02, 2014

Does your kid have colic? BUY THIS, BUY IT NOW. Thank me later. It will work and it will turn everything black. But it's a slice of sanity in the chaos that is colic. Apr 23, 2018

Worked great in the beginning, soothed infant instantly. But eventually didn't work well and ended up using Mommy's Bliss gripe water that worked better. Also HATED that it would stain ANY clothing! Mar 08, 2018
