POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 9 yr old boy5 years agoA. Babies with G6PD deficiency appear normal at birth. They may experience neonatal jaundice and hemolysis that can be so serious as to cause neurologic damage or even death. Barring such severe complications in the newborn period, infants with G6PD deficiency generally experience normal growth and development.

As far as safety goes, the brands of gripe water that contain alcohol, artificial sweeteners, or sodium bicarbonate are not recommended for babies. Here is a breakdown of some of the traditional ingredients of gripe water and how they affect the baby: https://parenting.firstcry.com/articles/should-you-give-gripe-water-to-babies/?amp
