Description Detailed Details Gripe is caused by muscle spasms and excess acid created when air bubbles form in a baby’s tummy. When these air bubbles get trapped in a baby’s stomach, the stomach thinks it is full of food, so acids are produced which would normally break down the food particles. These acids are not needed and can irritate. 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, a prime choice of gripe water for babies, contains oil of Dill herb and Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate, specifically designed to bring relief from wind and gripe. If you have ever wondered, ‘What is gripe water?’, this product provides the answer. Dill Oil warms and relaxes the tummy, aiding in the breakdown of trapped air bubbles. Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate neutralises acid in the baby’s tummy. The results are usually a resounding burp, illustrating the effectiveness of Woodward’s gripe water uses.
