Very VERY gassy baby. Cries and writhes in pain on the regular. I've literally tried just about everything, change of diet (breast feeding), trying formula (milk allergy sensitive formulation), gas drops (4 brands), gripe water (this is the 3rd brand), tummy massage, heating pads, all the calming baby washes on the market, a new swing, I even resorted to sticking a device up my baby's bottom to relieve gas... Literally to see little to NO affect. Do you know how much money I've spent? A lot. But it would be worth it for just a moment of relief for my poor little dude.So after my last failed "miracle cure" didn't pan out I found myself browsing Bolo as I usually do at the wee hours of the night when my son is finally asleep. Looking, searching for that cure. That magical potion that will give him some relief. I was starting to believe I would never find it and I was going to just continue to suffer and cry with him day in and day out.THEN.Then the heavens opened up and showed me this product with all its glowing reviews. I thought WHY NOT I have tried everything else. What harm could it do. With not a ton of optimism I added it to my cart at 3 days later, today, I got it in the mail.Let me tell you about how my day went. It started as a typical day. My light and fussy sleeper awoke at 6 am thanks to his daddy's phone ringing. The crying and fussing began. This kid has a shriek you wouldn't believe and it is like insta-migraine inducing. I have 2 other kids so he is left to cry more often than I'd like, but hey my other kids have to eat too you know? So crying crying crying. Rock Rock, set down, crying some more. Stresssssssed out mom. All the usual things. Nursed him, burped him. Later I gave him a bottle. Burped him. Gas drops. More crying. Then 11:30 came around and the mail lady (or my guardian angel) drops off the package and I literally immediately tried it. I was perplexed by the black liquid, tasted it (as I always try out things on myself first) was surprised it tasted really good then in it went, into the fussy baby's mouth. He drank it up happily (thank goodness) and GUESS WHAT!***Here's where the good stuff starts so if you've been skimming you want to start reading now. ***He was HAPPY!!!!! Like seriously instantaneously happy. Big huge grin on his face. I brought him out to his father and showed him how happy he was. He farted around with dad watering the flowers for 45 minutes then I took him, took my usual deep breath before nap time (because it's usually a battle) and laid down with him. I nursed him and HE FELL IMMEDIATELY ASLEEP!!!! What?! Who is this baby?! And you know what else? He didn't wake up when I moved! So he slept for a good 45 minutes and then woke up super happy and smiley. This was his entire afternoon. In the evening I dosed him again as a preemptive (at this point I'm still cautiously but happily skeptical) and just GUESS WHAT. I know, I keep making you guess what happened BUT IT IS JUST SO UNBELIEVABLE. He farted, burped, all that stuff that usually really pisses him off without any issue. Just did it like a normal person. But that's not even the best part. The best part. The part that made me have to write a review right now is this........ He laughed for the first time tonight. HE LAUGHED. Do you realize how huge that is?! My son was so comforted he was able to laugh when he wanted to. And it was a glorious sound. So at this moment in time, less than 12 hours from unboxing and using the product, I am a believer. I AM A BELIEVER.Could this seriously be it?! I realize this could all be a giant coincidence. That's the natural skeptic in me. BUT. At this moment in time I am a believer that I have finally found the holy grail of baby potions. I am so elated you really have no idea. Or maybe you do. Being screamed at by a tiny person for hours and hours for days and months on end does something really screwed up to one's head. I don't wish it on my worse enemies. So the thought of having something that might actually lessen the crying for even a moment is pure gold.BUY. THIS. PRODUCT. Just try it. I wish I had 3 months ago, I may have been able to enjoy my newborn had I used it then.

I wish I could give it 0 stars! We gave it to him at about 9 pm. I was very excited. I waited, I expected him to calm right down. but he didn't. He still fussed. I thought it was just taking him longer. After all sometimes these things don't always act as fast in all people. So we waited longer. Then, it was bed time. But still, he didn't calm. So we took to the exercise ball, and strapped on the baby carrier. And nothing. He was fussy and very jumpy. You've heard of restless leg syndrome... his legs were jumpy like that. For hours we walked, bounced on the ball, burped, snuggled, swapped out with daddy, laid under blankets, out of blankets, in the dark, in the living room,...while we were in bed I had him laying on my chest, and I thought to myself "god, its like he is having seizures!" I got really scared. I started watching him. His eyes were open, and he was jumpy, kinda shaky. I wasn't sure if he was awake or what. He has been known to fall asleep with his eyes open...but all the movement...it was odd. and he seemed to be in a lot of pain. He was crying. and moaning the whole time. and screaming. That started almost as soon as I gave him the colic calm. It was frightening. Because I was so sleepy myself it took me awhile to put the pieces together. I think he was in a great deal of pain and crying from the stuff, but had fallen asleep, and was having very vivid dreams, hence all the movement and eyes open. I finally decided to try to wake him up and give him a bath, to help sooth his tummy. It worked...while he was in the water. As soon as we pulled him out, he was screaming again. So, we got the tylenol, his old gripe water and the phazyme. I gave him a dose of tylenol, gripe water. I put all of these meds in a bottle nipple together and he just sucks it down at the same time. With in minutes he was feeling better. Which I guess means he didn't really need the tylenol, but, I wasn't sure what kind of pain he was in. Honestly, it was horrible. And to make matter more frightening, I had also given my older daughter some for her tummy! So as I am laying in bed with my baby on my chest, thinking he is having seizures, my head then turned to older daughter upstairs in her bed and what in the world is going on with her. All night long I had been hearing her cough, cough, cough...then nothing. My mind was at the worst case possible... I had dh go check on her. Happily she was fine. as soon as I am done typing this I am going to dump that crap down the drain. I hope to never ever see my baby or any ones baby suffer like that again. All natural does not mean all safe. My father is a physician assistant and my mother is a mental health RN, they have warned me about that many times. I am so mad at myself right now. All natural does not mean all safe....
