Is this a 6 wk growth spurt?

LO has by no means a schedule but was sort of falling into a pattern of sleeping 2-3hrs at night, he has never slept during the day, and I was starting to feel less overwhelmed since I was getting used  to sleeping 2-3 hrs at the time....but for the past 2 days he has not slept AT ALL! the most he sleeps at night is 45 min to 1 hr,  and after feedings he's usually awake and alert for at least 3-4 hrs! so needless to say I haven't slept because by the time I start to fall asleep he's waking up! and I feel like I did the first couple weeks (so overwhelmed and I hate to say it, aggravated and annoyed by DS) Last night I resorted back to letting him sleep on my chest and I slept on the recliner and I got a whopping 2 hrs! He seems to be eating all day as well, shorter periods and more frequently....so I'm assuming is a growth spurt, my question to you is how many days does one spurt usually last? This is kicking my heiny!

    During Audrey's growth spurts she would eat pretty much non stop for a day or two. Followed by a day of two of constant sleeping. I hope your LO starts sleeping very soon.

    Elliott's 6 week growth spurt lasted 5 days... it was horrible. It did end though, thank goodness. Yours will too. A lot of women had shorter 6week g/s, so yours might be shorter too. Good luck, keep the tv remote nearby and lots of snacks

    Ugh we juuuuust went through this here. Baby had about 4 days of NO sleeping and being super cranky. And then 2 days of sleeping all day long. Now he is *knock on wood* back to normal.
