After a growth spurt

After a growth spurt is it typical for LO to go back to their normal schedule, more or less, and just eat for a little bit longer? I'm pretty sure DD went through her 3 week spurt Saturday-Monday (I'm proud of myself for sticking it out...even though I was in tears Monday night because she was up all night long and I was physically and mentally exhausted). Tuesday and yesterday she was back to her normal "schedule" but was eating for closer to 20 minutes total instead of 5-10 minutes. Is this how it usually goes?

  • That's how it has been in my experience. There will be a few days of nonstop eating and little sleep and then she goes back to a routine similar to what she had before the growth spurt
