He also seems to be eating less at each feed, but last week he was eating a ton! It's definitely been a trying day for this momma. Should have know something was up, he didn't sleep at all Wednesday night, slept like a champ yesterday but barely ate, and has been a crab apple today! Luckily it's nice out today so we are heading out for much needed fresh air!!
Also a terrible one for us, and we're into week 7! I've done lots of reading that says weeks 6-8 are rocky and the peak of fussiness. LO is still eating more often but smaller amounts, and having troubles napping during the day.
I'm interested to see what next week will be like... Hopefully we're on the home stretch and my well tempered baby will be back soon!
No advice here, but I'd say we're going thru the same thing. We just happen to be dealing MPI, reflux, and another formula switch at the same time. I feel your pain!

I will have nightmares about the 6 week growth spurt for years to come. It was ROUGH for us!
Ours lasted about 9 days and DS ate much more often than yours. Try every 45 minutes- 2 hours!
This beautiful article really helped me get through it: https://nurshable.com/2012/05/27/six-week-growth-spurt/
Hang in there and good luck!
