Gripe water experience?

we are using gripe water with the girls to treat their mild to moderate colic symptoms. I'm wondering if anyone else has used this with any success or found it cheaper in bulk quantities online somewhere.

any experience or feedback is welcome!

 

We got ours in Canada (my grandparents live on the border) and we just used ours for hiccups. That is all it seemed to work on for us.

Did you buy it in person or online?

 

You can find the gripe water at ethnic food markets such a African, Caribbean or Latin.

My mom picked it up in a drug store in Canada.

 

they have it at BRU and walmart now... It is called little tummies... I bought mine online from babycenter.com...

 

We bought ours online. Our ped recommended Woodwards and I think we bought 4 bottles but really only used 1 - I think 1 bottle arrived broken. We never really found it to be helpful (same with Mylicon) but come to find out, the formula we were using was the reason our kids were so gassy.
