Why I Bought It We needed something safe and effective for relieving our baby’s gas without giving medicine. What I Like • Works every single time • Quick relief • Baby doesn’t mind it at all • Safe, gentle, and harm-proof • Worth every penny What Could Be Better • A bit pricey for how often you use potentially them, but still totally worth it Real-Life Use Whenever gas or discomfort hits, this gives instant relief. No crying, no struggling — just calmer baby and calmer parents. Overall Thoughts A must-have for gassy babies. Highly recommend adding this to your newborn kit.

Purchased this as it was recommended by a friend. Used on my newborn baby (less than 1 month old) after she had not pooped and was passing gas for quite a bit (gas relief drops failed to work). This worked incredibly well. Just have wipes and a bag ready. After inserting this, poop immediately flew out (got on my hand, changing pad cover, diaper caddy, etc) and my newborn was immediately relieved. Will definitely be using this in the future and will recommend to others.

This thing definitely works!! My baby is 18 days old and I tried it yesterday when I received it. She had me fussy and seemed to be struggling to poop or pass any gas. I followed the directions using coconut oil to rub her tummy and as a lubricant and as soon as I inserted it so much poo came shooting out!! She was instantly relieved after I was not ready for that. But I’m so happy she got some relief she slept for a couple hours after that and woke up to eat. Great to have on hand. Would purchase again and recommend to anyone.

Best on the market! Was very easy to use. Highly recommend for constipated babies.

Easy, effective, and non-medicated way to relieve gas, especially for young infants. My baby was very fussy due to gas and this helped clear it up. Just make sure to have a diaper and pad ready because there will be a lot of poo. Possible blowouts after too.

LET'S TALK POOP, GAS & TUMMY TROUBLES... because, face it, oce you have a baby, talking about poop is no different from talking about the weather. :) We had an EXTREMELY colicky baby... we thought she was just angry and colicky, but we learned she had a SEVERE allergy to dairy. Her allergy is called CMPA - Cow's Milk Protein Allergy. A rare allergy to CMP that passes through the breastmilk, and causes swelling and tears in the baby's intestines, stomach and bowels. This caused MAJOR GI issues, gas, diarrhea, and belly pain - and SCREAMING. Oh, the screaming!!!! Ahead of delivery, I ordered this because I'd heard great things about everything by FridaBaby (oh, how I love their booger sucker!). Sure, these were bizarre in concept, but I thought, "well, if I do need it, I'll be happy I have it." And man, were my husband and I happy to have these. We LIVED by these, and did so with our pediatrician's approval. You don't want to use this too much, because the baby can become reliant on it for BMs. But, her system was so bad off (to the point she had micro-tears in her GI, so we were doing hemoccult tests regularly at the doctor until we knew she was healed), we were desperate at times. Usually around 2 or 4AM every night, she would scream nonstop. The same happened at least 2 other times during the day. We always tried tummy massages (we took a class at the local hospital) and leg crunches. When those failed, along with tummy-time, we used these things. This went on for 3-4 months... so for the first few months, especially the first 2.5-3 months when we didn't know she had the allergy, these were the only thing that would temporarily relieve her gas pain. Where these get wider, that's what stops it from going too far into the baby's bum. It's exactly the same concept as the well-known thermometer or q-tip method parents & doctors have been using for years. When a baby's constipated or gassy, using one of these things (thermometer or qtip) were often used to 'stimulate' some activity. These are better because not only are they disposable (really - don't try to reuse these), but they go a little deeper than just the edge and really help to relieve (and channel - the MESS!) what's going on in there. Sorry FridaBaby, but I have to share this with fellow parents.... there is another brand that makes these (though, the invention credit goes to FridaBaby) for a little cheaper. Let's face it, these aren't cheap... but you can save a little bit by Aizara Gas Relief Baby, Gas and Colic Reliever for Babies Doctor-Invented Hollow Tube Natural Solution for Colic 10 pcs . These work EXACTLY the same as Windi's version. They may even be slightly better made, but it's negligible. Really, there's no functional difference just a few dollars in savings. As a tip, we used Vaseline, or grape-seed oil as a lubricant when using this and combined these with tummy massages. Remember when you give a baby a belly massage, you MUST go from the baby's left to right... I suggest the "I Love You" massage - google it. Then do some leg crunches to their belly, add a little lubricant, (have a diaper or pad ready for the mess) and use this. Net, this works 99% of the time and worked exactly as well as Windi. If you prefer the name-brand (Windi), I still recommend it and the same tips above. This version is just a little cheaper. To use, (after you've tried tummy time, massage, etc.), you hold baby's feet in one hand pulling them to their face, (baby's on their back), use a lubricant to ensure you don't create any fissures or damage, insert and wait. You can apply gentle pressure or have your spouse gently rub down and counter-clockwise (from your POV, so counter-clockwise to you while you're facing baby), which often helps. I wouldn't say it really "whistles", not in the sense I think of when someone says whistle. It sounds like what you'd expect gas to sound like... and poop often DOES come out. So be ready to catch it with a diaper. As some people have commented, these do not work for everyone. In fact, there were times when I thought, "WTH... why isn't this working!?!?!? It always works!" So, don't be discouraged, and don't push it (figuratively)... sometimes the baby's bowels just aren't ready. Use common sense, and don't use this 5 times a day, but when you need it, you'll know. Sorry if TMI - just hoping this helps someone else on their journey.

If you’re a new parent facing gas, tummy pain, or those tough first weeks of starting solids — this tool truly saves the day. The Windi was an absolute lifesaver for us. In the newborn stage, it helped every time our baby had gas or couldn’t poop. And when we started solid foods, things got even harder — her stool changed, became firmer, and she really struggled to go. Those first couple of weeks of introducing solids were rough, and these little tubes helped her so much. I kept them with me at all times because when she was in pain, this gave instant relief. It’s safe, easy to use, and honestly brought comfort not only to our baby but to us as parents. When nothing else worked — this did.

One more thing to share - we ended up doing a blood allergy test at ~13 months and found allergic reactions to 5 food products. Of course windi wouldn't help us! Of course eliminating just milk was not going to help us! Because besides milk there was 4 more foods to avoid. Ahh the experience you get... 7/17/2018 update As I'm studying psychology now, never ever in my life will I put anything in my baby this way unless there is an emergency and no other alternative. This honestly didn't feel right, as a mother, our intuition works best. 6/8/2017 update Our baby is ~3 months old now and I can tell that tummy time helped the most, it helped develop necessary muscles and therefore helped pass gas without any extra help. *** It's probably working for some parents and it's OK to use once in a while. We were desperate for finding a solution to our baby's gas pain and honestly a q-tip with olive oil or petroleum jelly worked better then windi. Using this thing felt weird and really bad and we never used it again. If I read this article below I wouldn't have gotten it. "Infant dyschezia is the name for when babies strain, grunt, and cry for at least ten minutes several times a day prior to passing gas or stool. It is affects most babies at some point in the first several weeks of life and is the result of an inability to coordinate relaxation of the pelvic floor musculature and intra-abdominal pressure (valsalva). Infant dyschezia is nearly always misinterpreted as pain related to gas or constipation. It is neither. Crying and straining is merely the baby’s reflexive attempt to valsalva harder against closed anal sphincters. It is not caused by pain or discomfort. When these episodes result in stool, it is normal soft baby poop. Unfortunately it is common for parents to experience anxiety related to infant dyschezia and to seek out medical care for gas and/or constipation. Many parents have been told, by well-meaning friends and family, and even the occasional medical professional, that using a rectal thermometer (or the Windi) to open up the anus is necessary to relieve their baby’s suffering. And this will sometimes result in a rush of gas or poop. The concerning baby behavior will then stop, which reinforces the parental desire for more intervention. The problem with this is that infant dyschezia is part of normal development. They will eventually reach the milestone of being able to coordinate defecation and passing gas easily. Frequent rectal stimulation will actually delay this process and even potentially result in a baby that is dependent on rectal insertion in order to stool normally. So despite what is cleverly implied on the Windi website, most pediatric professionals specifically recommend against this method." (From Science-based medicine, by Clay Jones)
