Babies tend to suck in air while feeding. The air bubbles get trapped in the stomach and cause gas and stomach discomfort. Most babies get fussy right after feeding due to gulping too much air or swallowing the food too quickly. It is good practice to administer gripe water after 30 mins from the feeding to allow some time to empty the tummy. When given too soon after feeding, the baby may spit it out as their stomach is full. If the baby does not complete feeding due to gas, administer gripe water to the baby before feeding.
Woodward’s gripe water is a time-tested solution and should be administered as needed, and not as a preventive measure. Woodward’s can be given to newborns right from 6 months and children up to 3 years of age. Gripe water can be administered at the first signs of stomach discomfort.
Woodward’s gripe water dosage depends on the individual baby and the age of the baby. You can refer the pack for dosage instructions.
