A. nope, Giving gripe water is not necessary to babies at any age. If the baby is having gases or colics you can try Colicaid drops. Burp properly after each feeding is important.

A. Hello good morning !! No gripe water is not suggested as it contains alcoholic elements most of the paediatricians not suggesting gripe water. Exclusive breast milk or formula milk is suggested untill 5 completed months and from 6 month onwards start semi solids,water and other fluids for babies. Burp after every feed do tummy massage regularly to avoid digestion issues. If baby cranky and cries continuously for 30-40 minutes by stretching body then might be colic issues consult Paeditrician immediately in that case.
