My problem with using OnGuard on my baby is that he wouldn't sleep. Two months old, 8-9 hours of no sleep. I wouldn't say he was unhappy or fussy, but it's utterly exhausting dealing with a baby that acts like they popped a couple no-doz. I suspected the rosemary, since it's used as a stimulant too.
There were a couple incidents where my baby would be sleeping, then start getting really twitchy/jerky and eyes rolling. I'd just touch him or pick him up and he'd stop, I wouldn't exactly call them seizures. On the other hand, my brother deals with Grand Mal seizures... so there's that complication too.
By the way, OnGuard will pass through the breastmilk. I was thinking I would take OnGuard and boost my own immunity for the baby, but he was just as awake as if he was taking it. Now my husband is the only one using it.
At this time, we put Wild Orange on my baby's feet everyday (the first oil in the OnGuard blend). If I had it, I would be adding Melissa too. And we've been using Balance on his feet since he was hours old. Perhaps when he's a year old, we'll try OnGuard again.

I also read that rosemary and eucalyptus can cause seizures in babies.
That concerns me since those ingredients are in the onguard.
