some friends of mine swear by it, but it gave ds a grumbly belly and he was really cranky after having it. In my opinion the mylicon drops work better...for me anyway.
I got it at BBB.

Re: What is gripe water and where do I get it? Does it really help?
I used the gripe water when Nikolas was a newborn and it seemed to help us somewhat.. though he had a few diff. issues. He was colic and gassy and reflux all combined into one unhappy baby
I did continue using mylicon drops with his bottles in addition to the gripe water, however..
I got the Gripe Water at BRU but I've seen it at BBB too and I konw that health food stores sell it.
We used the Little Tummies brand..

I swear by it!!! It's been a miracle worker for Bella. It's got Fennel in it which is amazing for gas (also good for BF) I think it works much better than Mylicon, IMO.

I used it and it definitely took the edge off for DD. For her, I think it was better than mylicon. I gave it to her a few times a day and I never worried b/c it's all natural.

I got it at my health food store, a big bottle.. did it help?? Not really... he was just soooooooooo gassy, and add colic and reflux to that.. it was bad. but i've heard it work wonders for some babies so its worth a try..
