Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Gripe water is given to infants who have colic. Usually colic lasts until a baby is three-four or possibly six months old. If your baby is not crying inconsolably, then please stop it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
