LO woke up crying every 45 min to half hour since 6 PM last night and now it's 8:30 in the morning. She grunts and moans trying to fall sleep and then wakes herself up after a little while. She is 5 and half weeks. Could this be the 6 week growth spurt from hell?

The night before she was inconsolable from 5 pm to midnight...then she slept 1.5 to 2 hour stretches.

Things tried: swaddle, dark room, shooshing, swing, gripe water, gas drops, raised crib/bassinet ..and I don't know what else..my brain is a mush on half hour sleep since 24 hours ago..

Yea, I have the sheep going at the same time. It's very noisy in our room at night, but it seems to work and keep him from waking up, and I'm so exhausted that I'll sleep through anything right now!
