When Do I Administer Gripe Water?
Because each baby has different needs and unique symptoms, there is no specific time during which it is best to administer gripe water. However, most babies need gripe water after feeding because they can have gas from eating too quickly and gulping in the air while feeding. We recommend waiting at least 30 minutes after feeding to administer Mommy’s Bliss Gripe Water as this allows time for food to digest. Administering the gripe water too soon after feeding may cause vomiting because your baby is too full and the ingredients may not mix well with stomach contents. If your baby is not able to complete feeding due to gas, you may want to administer Mommy’s Bliss Gripe Water prior to feeding to ease the process. As mentioned earlier, there is no single solution as to when is the best time to administer gripe water. Ask your pediatrician and experiment with different times to see what works best for your baby. Although most babies will respond best to gripe water when it is given 30 minutes or more after feeding, your baby may fare better if the product is administered before feeding.
