I use mylicon drops alot. they seem to help and i either lay her on my chest or across my legs and pat her back until i can get her to burp. Thanks for the advice

another good thing that can work is laying the baby on their back and pushing their knees towards their belly...sort of like doing bicycle moves with their legs. I never gave my daughter anything as she hardly got any wind or gas ( i think because i breastfed but not sure,lol..just what ive been told) so i just did the bicycle moves or put her face down across my lap and patted her back.

my daughter was the same! Gripe water did nothing. finally, I found something called Oval. It for colic. It definately helped, nut she still cried like crazy whe she got those gas pains. i dn't know of anything that works 100%, but the Oval helped.

mylicon is the best invention for infants, relieves gas and its not an actual medicine so its save to give after every feeding
