Remedy for Stomach discomfort
Hello,
My 28days old daughter cries a lot while peeing and passing stool. She strains a lot while passing stool, though it is semi solid state.
Due to this while sleeping she gets disturbed and its pretty difficult to put her back to sleep.
For my elder daughter(5yr) I used to give Bonnisan and Gripe water for few days until it got settled as she was colicky.
Due to this my newborn daughter doesnt sleep well and expects me to allow her to latch on always until she sleeps.
Can I give Gripe water to her ? If so what wouldbe the dosage?
Thank you.

Those are ayurvedic products which are not recommended. Its common to cry when they pass urine or stool as it becomes wet. You can wait for few more days and if baby is crying during passing urine.. you need to consult your pediatrician or online.
