Eating less after six week growth spurt

So DD just went through her six week growth spurt. She finally slept longer last night, but has hardly eaten and it's 10:30am! She ate a lot at her 4:30am feeding ad woke up at 8:30 and ate very little and was pretty fussy and we ended up giving her something for gas and she calmed down and took a short nap. Now she's up and I tried to feed her and she only ate a couple minutes again. Is it normal for them to eat less right after a growth spurt? She ate a ton yesterday.

Re: Eating less after six week growth spurt

  • My baby is doing the same thing after her 3 week growth spurt. I am thinking its probably normal. She's sleeping longer stretches at night now that she doesn't want to feed every 2 hours so I'm not complaining!
