FAQs
How does the Windi work?
The Windi is a hollow tube designed to be inserted into a baby's rectum. It gently stimulates the muscle that prevents the release of gas, allowing trapped gas to escape and providing relief from colic and bloating.
Is the Windi safe to use on my baby?
Yes, the Windi is designed to be safe when used as instructed. It features a rounded tip and a stopper to prevent over-insertion. It is also BPA and Latex-Free. It's invented by a pediatric gastroenterologist, similar to how pediatricians use rectal thermometers to relieve gas.
How often can I use the Windi?
The Windi should be used only when your baby is experiencing gas discomfort. While there's no strict limit, it's generally recommended not to use it more than 3-4 times in a 24-hour period. If your baby frequently needs the Windi, consult your pediatrician.
Can I reuse a Windi tube?
No, each Windi tube is designed for single-use only. Reusing a Windi can compromise hygiene and potentially introduce bacteria, as well as diminish its effectiveness.
Does the Windi replace colic medication?
The Windi offers a natural, non-ingestible alternative for gas relief, but it does not replace medical treatment for underlying conditions. It provides symptomatic relief from gas and colic. Always consult your pediatrician regarding your baby's colic and gas management.
What should I do if my baby passes stool when using the Windi?
Passing stool during Windi use is common and normal, as the stimulation can also encourage bowel movements. Always have a diaper ready underneath your baby when using the Windi.
Troubleshooting
No gas is released after insertion.
Ensure the Windi is inserted at the correct angle and depth (until the stopper). Sometimes, gentle abdominal massage or bicycling your baby's legs before and during insertion can help facilitate gas release. If after a minute no gas is released, you can gently remove and re-insert, ensuring proper lubrication.
Baby seems uncomfortable or cries more during use.
Ensure you are using ample lubrication on the tip of the Windi. Insert very gently and slowly. If your baby exhibits significant distress, discontinue use and consult with your pediatrician. The process should be as quick and gentle as possible.
Feces came out with gas.
This is a common and expected occurrence as the Windi can stimulate bowel movements. Have a fresh diaper ready before use to manage this. It indicates that the Windi successfully stimulated the area.
