Six Week Growth Spurt

Is it just me or is the six week growth spurt the worst of them so far?? We have one hungry, sleepy, cranky baby on our hands!

Re: Six Week Growth Spurt

  • Ooohhh, there's a six week too.  I totally forgot my kid was six weeks old.  We just did the four week mess.  Of course.  That totally makes sense why he won't get off my boob!!  And I still ended up with mastitis even though h

  • Yep. We are just coming out of it. Our normally really happy baby screamed like I'd never heard her do a couple evenings. And ate a ton. And added two extra night feedings. Phew. But she's finally getting back to sleeping great and she's eating less often

  • I was wondering about this!  DD was cranky and wanted to eat every hour and half last week.  I think we're over the hump now...let's hope anyway!
  • DD just hit 6 weeks yesterday and just this morning (3AM) I commented on how much bigger she looked. I guess that weekend of cranky fussy did it's job...
  • Something to look forward to in two weeks.
  • It's the worst one we've had by far.  I hope they don't get worse than this!
