Is this the 3 week growth spurt?

DD has been eating all day and I mean all day and for longer than she has ever eaten and it's freaking me out. Her schedule all day has been sleep for 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours and then BF for 20-35 minutes. This is really unusual for her she normally only nurses for 10-15 minutes and is full. She also wants to be held all day and seems fussy. Thanks for any help, tips, or suggestions!

    Sounds exactly like a growth spurt to me.  It should only last a couple of days and your supply should increase to meet her higher food demand.

    Good:) I'm glad this is normal. She just seems like she can't fill up today where normally I have to keep waking her up to get a decent feeding for her. Only bad part is I'm so exhausted from not being able to nap... It's going to be a rough couple of days.

    OMG I am going on day 3 of that exact behavior, only add into the mix that E acts all hungry and then when I give him the boob he will eat for a second and then pull away and fuss.  Eat, fuss, eat, fuss, etc.  Hello, frustrating!!
