What brand and type of probiotics were given to the babies?  I think you need 
to be careful to get a brand that is hypoallergenic, like one from Klaire 
Labs.  Others do have traces of potential allergens, like dairy.

Yes. The children were recruited before birth, breastfeeding strongly  
encouraged by the researchers, and breastfeeding status recorded  
regularly. Samples of breastmilk were taken (among other samples,  
including child's saliva and feces) to examine for the presence of  
probiotic bacteria, as part of the study protocol.

I'm not involved in the study as a researcher, but my son is, as a  
subject.
