Gripe water contains oil of Dill herb and Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate and brings rapid relief of wind and gripe. (Thats what it says on the box)
I put a teaspoon of it in 6 of Leigha's bottles a day and it basically helps her to bring up wind. The Dill oil in the gripe water relaxes the tummy, breaking down trapped air bubbles. The sodium Hydrogen Carbonate neutralises acid in the baby's tummy and helps them bring up nice big burps..or in the case of my daughter, huge trumps lol :lol:
