A. If you're referring to Gripe water or products like Carmicide (possibly meant as a carminative), it's often used to relieve gas, colic, or tummy discomfort in newborns. However, giving such products to a newborn should be done only after consulting a pediatrician, especially for babies under 6 months. Here’s how to understand or use such products safely: Check the ingredients: Avoid anything with alcohol, sodium bicarbonate, or strong herbal oils, which are not safe for newborns. Follow exact dosage: If your doctor approves it, use a dropper to give only the prescribed amount. Watch for reactions: After giving it, monitor your baby for any signs of allergy like rash, vomiting, or unusual fussiness. Safer alternatives: Gentle tummy massage, bicycle leg movements, burping after every feed, and tummy time can naturally relieve gas. Always read labels carefully and confirm with your pediatrician before giving any medicine or supplement to a newborn.
