no its not necessary to give ... but most of babies suffer from gastrointestinal disorders n gripe water is for proper digestion

hi. I started giving bonnisan to my daughter after introducing solids i. e 6 months. It is not required if your baby is only on milk feed unless he/ she cries at night because of gastric.

There is no need for bonnisan or gripe water... these are basically for colicky babies... both of these contain preservatives which is not advised for babies... instead doctors give colic aid drops which are widout preservatives... my Lo is 5 months and havent given him bonnisan or gripe water... only coloc aid drops when cried due to stomach pain... hope it helps.

not necessary of gripe water. if your baby is having gastric problem. hold her upside down, pat her on back for sometime.. the baby is will be able to burp and she will have relief.

Hey!! my baby is just 2 months old n she too suffered same issue.. I know it's painful for both mum n baby it s not mandatory to give either of them daily.. check ur diet if u r breastfeeding .. follow colic relieving massage manure for ur baby on everyday basis. . give some tummy time which releases flatulence .. babies digestive system shud not be interrupted by any external aids which ll disturb their normal physiology ... . .

my kid too had the same problem. when consulted the paediatrician,he advised to use bonnisan by Himalaya. I use it very rarely. The doctor advised to make kiddo burp twice during feed.. and also after feed. My mom suggested Applying castor oil on stomach.. as it relieves pain and any hear or gas in the stomach. which also works.

I would suggest to use Neopeptine drops 8 drops once in a day which my doctor advised and if worked well on my baby fine. Use colic aid only when the baby cries excessively.
