The dreaded 6 month growth spurt?

Have you noticed the 6 month growth spurt yet? I'm starting to think maybe that's adding to our teething/ear infection and that's why everything seems worse than they should. I think DD just happens to be going through everything at once. When it rains it pours I guess.

  • I guess the upside to everything happening at once is that everything is happening at once. haha. But DS2 seems to always be growing (no teeth coming in yet)

  • I think we are there, or at least I am hoping thats the reason for the nighttime irritability. Nate seems to be growing like a weed. No teeth yet, but had a fever Sat/Sun and has been a terrible sleeper for weeks. Last night woke every 45-60 min screaming!

    Is that what I get to blame everything on now?  4MW, teething, learning new skills, 6 mo growth spurt. LOL.
    It's what's getting me through! Something tells me it's just her personality though.
  • At 5m4w LO was up every 3 hrs starting at Midnight.  Now at 6m1w she's now back to 1 feeding overnight (I include any feeding between 7pm-7am as "overnight").  Hang in there!

  • I thought we got through it and now it's back rearing it's ugly head today Sad He is seriously draining me and has re-earned his milk monster nick name! Let's hope it goes back to normal soon.

  • Same boat here.  AJ wakes several times throughout the night.  Sometimes just to cuddle.  We cut out the cuddling by just patting and shushing which is taking even longer!  I do think it has cut out a few wake ups, only because we aren't moving him.    He is back to only eating once throughout the night.  I used to never hear a peep from him from 8:30/9 ish unitl 7 am!  Ugh!!
