DD is just turned 1 year, and has been suddenly having a lot of trouble sleeping, gassy & seems to be constipated. We have been using a "nice safe" Gripe Water since 3 months old for gassy problems and even teething pain, works great and she likes the taste. So we have used it pretty liberally. But now with the constipation I'm wondering - can Gripe Water cause problems if you use it over a long time? This is the first time she's ever gotten constipated, but since this has been such a useful help and now I'm worried maybe she shouldn't have it very often?
Is there any evidence that it can cause a problem if you use it as a moderately routine treatment?
