The Benefits of Gripe Water and Simethicone Gas Drops

As a parent, there is little that is more stressful than a seemingly inconsolable baby. Gas & colic are common causes of fussiness, but how do you know if your baby is colicky or just gassy?

Gas vs Colic

Colic is excessive or intense crying in babies who are otherwise healthy and feeding well; it generally begins between two to three weeks old and typically ends when babies are between three to four months old. Often, colic is described as crying for at least 3 hours a day, for at least 3 days a week, for at least 3 weeks. On average, one in five babies have colic or exhibit colic-like symptoms, so although you may feel alone in your frustration, you aren’t - and relief is available.

Gripe Water

If your baby is suffering from colic and you’re searching for a gentle supplement, try Mommy’s Bliss Gripe Water. Made with organic fennel and ginger, it's the #1 selling natural supplement for colic and can help relieve fussiness, hiccups, and gas.

Gas Relief Drops

For many babies, fussiness can be caused by gas rather than colic. Babies that are suffering from gas often pull their legs toward their bodies, crying after or during feeding, spit up frequently, or have bloated bellies. A few different tools can help provide relief for your baby; try a warm bath, a tummy massage, or bicycling his or her legs. Mommy Bliss Gas Relief Drops are an effective option that can relieve baby's gas. Mommy’s Bliss Gas Relief Drops can safely be used in conjunction with our Gripe Water products. The two products together can be especially useful to babies who have been crying incessantly. The Gas Relief drops help baby to burp up all the churned-up air in the stomach from bouts of crying. Gripe Water likewise aids burping and helps soothe baby’s tummy distress with the ginger and fennel ingredients. The two together relieve gas pains and provide longer-lasting relief by soothing baby’s tummy.
