The SECRET of GRIP WATER & the Hospital Epiphany

About 6 day after our little guy was born we had to rush to the hospital because of some crazy bowel movements & extreme fussiness.  Getting in the ER was the standard procedure, check in, give insurance, sat in a room to wait.  Once we were seen by the doctor she ordered some tests & an IV on our little one. OUCH.  Well the nurse brought over something called " Sweeties " What was this you might ask? A dumbed down version of Gripe Water.  A serum of magical liquid to make our baby " LOOPY, " as the nurse said, so that he wouldn't feel any pain.  Do you know what this magical liquid was? SUGAR & WATER.  The two main ingredients in Gripe Water. 

Tired daddy above tells you the secrets and all there is to know

The reason this & Gripe Water work so well on young babies & toddlers is because their liver isn't fully developed and mature and thus cannot process sugar yet.  This small fact allows these two substances to act like alcohol on our babies system making them " LOOPY " So now you know these wonderful facts and you can make your own instead of paying $4 - $8 per bottle.
