Newborn Fussy Period

I've read that the newborn fussy period peaks around 6-8 weeks. Did you experience that with your twins based on their actual age or adjusted age? My girls are just about 6weeks and I'm wondering if I am heading into the fussy time soon, or have 3 more weeks since they were born at 37wks.

    Your twins were considered full term babies being born at 37 weeks, so you won't have to adjust their age. Hope that helps.

    Mine were born at 37w, met all their milestones on target, etc., but I still found sleep stuff and things like sleep regressions and developmental spurts still happened based on adjusted age. 3 weeks is a lot of time when you're only 6 weeks old. I remember holding my breath until we got to their due date, thinking something would change drastically, and again at 6w adjusted and it wasn't anything major, just them gradually getting more alert and fussy.

    My singleton is a 37 weeker and I didnt adjust anything [bc he wasn't a preemie] and also didnt notice a 3 week lag in any sleep or developmental milestones.
