Gripe water

Hello,
I am finding it hard to give gripe water to my 10 month old. I have been advised to use it for her by health visitor. Has anyone put it in their babies bottle and it still worked or does this dilute it too much

If they use a dummy put the gripe water in a syringe . You pull out the dummy a small bit +slowly put syringe in corner of their mouth while they stuck on dummy

If they are struggling with wind, are they FF? Has the HV suggested trying Dentinox in the bottle instead?

Years ago we used to put it in a bottle teat and let baby suck it in.

I put it in my DS bottle of formula and seems to work a treat. He just refused to take it. Worth a shot OP x

I'm not sure how helpful gripe water would be for a baby aa old as 10 months. Are they mobile and eating some solid foods? As this usually helps with wind issues that smaller babies have.
