GRIPE WATER!
This stuff is a MUST in my medicine cabinet. I originally discovered it during the first few weeks when Babe was having a bout of colic.
It's basically baking soda mixed with herbs such as ginger and fennel.
It's realllllly great for soothing gas. It's somewhat of a catch-all for us. It's also been known to help with teething aches, hiccups, and colic.
I'm partial to the Mommy's Bliss brand because it was what available at the time and works effectively. I'm sure any brand will do. This particular brand also has a night time version. The ingredients are a tad different (I think they added in chamomile, lemon balm, and passion flower). The dosing is different from the regular to the night version, so pay attention to that.
Hack: use the doser and put amount into a clean bottle nipple for easier consumption.
As always, check with your pediatrician first and verify dosing amounts!
