Woodward's Gripe Water for babies - What a Miracle?!




It was our baby, Liz Halili Husna, 7 months plus, suddenly crying out loud seems like don't have an ending. It' s not that she never cry like this before but this one seems a bit 'painful'. Luckily I bought this Woodward's Gripe Water. It stated at the bottle pack 'Relief of Wind & Gripe'. We gave her 2 teaspoon of it and, in less than 5 sec, our baby are back to her smiling grin, sweet as always. phewwww.... What a wow!! So could anybody give a scientific explanation about this miracle? For info, the active ingredients in this product is as below:




Terpeneless Dill Seed Oil 2.3mg


Sodium Bicarbonate (B.P.) 52.5mg


Preserve with nipasept sodium 0.15% w/v




Just for the sake of adding knowledge into self, I would appreciate any comments out there about how's this thing works. Anyway and anyhow, I really recommend this for parents. Try it....

  1. Woodward's Gripe Water Alcohol & Sugar Free has been a trusted product in the UK for years. Gripe is caused by muscle spasms and excess acid created when air bubbles form in baby's tummy. When the air bubbles get trapped in a baby's stomach the stomach thinks it is full of food, so acids are prduced which would normally break down the food particles. These acids are not needed and can cause irritation. At the same time, because the stomach is full of air bubbles, its muscles are unable to relax causing cramps and spasms. Woodward's Gripe Water contains oil of Dill herb and Sodium Bicarbonate and brings rapid relief of wind and gripe. Dill Seed Oil warms and relaxes the tummy, breaking down trapped air bubbles. Sodium Bicarbonate neutralises acid in the baby's tummy. The results are usually a resounding burp.

    Contains: terpeneless dill see oil, sodium bicarbonate, e217, e219, disodium edta
