Gripe Water

Hi mummies! My mother in law bought gripe water and insist that I feed it to my 3 week old newborn. Is this advisable? She even insisted that I feed my baby cerelac at 1 month old so that baby won’t be hungry and keep waking up every 2-3 hourly every night. I really don’t wanna give all this to my baby... I really don’t mind waking up at night to feed baby.

No cerelac please! Solids to be started generally at 6 months old. Some babies may start a bit earlier but the earliest is still 4 months. Gripe water is for colic pain. If baby’s not having that, please don’t give it. Milk is all your baby needs now
