cluster feeding question
My DD is cluster feeding. Normal feedings are great, no issues. She'll be 3 weeks this Tuesday. So i know it could be a growth spurt. Tonight we are like FIVE hours. She delatches then goes NUTS like she is starving trying to find my nipple. When I put my nipple up to her mouth she bobs off on like there's nothing there making us both frustrated.
Is it because she's so tired? Why does she act like shes starving? I'm starting to think there is something wrong.I'm so exhausted.
Every time she falls asleep I think YES! but of course as soon as I move her she starts going crazy rooting for my breast. And she will scream if I don't hurry up give it to her.

Yep. Sounds like the 3 week growth spurt. Just hang in there. Enlist the help of husband, family, friends, whoever to do everything else and take care of you. And you just nurse, nurse, nurse. And when you need to take breaks for yourself, have someone else hold LO. It won't hurt the baby to cry for a bit. Have them try the 5 S's to calm LO while you get some rest.
