Babies: 0 - 3 Months

If you use gripe water...

How often do you give it? At signs of discomfort or do you give it at set times during the day everyday to try to avoid the gas and fuss? Thanks!

Re: If you use gripe water...

  • We only use it once every other day or so right now. We try everything we can think of and use gripe wAter as a last resort.

  • I only use it when it seems like he needs it - if he's fighting a bottle or has really bad hiccups that seem to hurt.

  • We still use it but only when she is really gassy - 99% of the time it's before bed. We still put gas drops in every bottle.

  • I use in demand. Example when he eats a bottle and is super gassy or fussy from the gas I'll add it to his next bottle.
  • We use it three times a day in a bottle. If not, she is really uncomfortable.

  • We use gas drops with every feeding, but only Gripe Water when he is extremely fussy and casey and has lasted for a specific period of time. As of right now, he is having Gripe Water 2-3 times per week for the last 2 weeks.

  • Signs of discomfort. Ours says no more than 6 times in 24 hours. It works right away, so doing it at certain times to avoid the gas/fuss isn't important.

  • It says on the bottle how much you can give in 24 hours
  • since its expensive we use when we have to, as PP as a last resort, we try rocking, walking, swaddling, the swing...if none of those work then we use the gripe water.  seems to work, but I don't know if its cus after all that screaming he just wore himself out!
