12 week GS is no joke

juliemay623 · January 2014

I didn't really notice a change in LO during the earlier growth spurts, but she has been such a grouch all week and I hope this ends soon. She used to be such a happy baby and would mostly fuss at night. Now she fusses all the time, won't nap unless it's in me, can't be taken anywhere without getting hysterical, etc. I'm seriously at my wit's end and cried today for the first time since probably 4 weeks. My only saving grace is that she sleeps well at night so I can get a break. Please God let this end soon...

Thanks for letting me vent. Here's a Picture from earlier this week when she was in a better mood.

When did it hit?
My DS is 11 weeks today.
I almost forgot this is right around the corner.
Now I'm frightened.

We are having a terrible time at 10 and a half weeks. I am worried about 12 weeks.

Yes!! It's been the same here too!! Mine LO is 12 weeks today and things are starting to get back to normal, but not quite there yet. This one has been a doozy!!

Oh my gosh yes! This is insane!

12 weeks today and this week has not been fun. I think it started on Xmas so that was 10 1/2 weeks. Not glad that you all are going through it too, but glad to have someone to commiserate with. Hang in there ladies, hopefully it's just temporary!

Aww I am sorry!! But I LOVE her outfit!!!!! And she is adorable. I am sure she will get back to normal.

We had a rough few days at 10 1/2 weeks then things got better as far as sleeping well at night, but yesterday and today she's back to super fussy during the day and won't sleep anywhere but on me just like your LO! I made the mistake of moving her so I could go pee earlier today and now refuse to dare try to get up again! Of course tonight DH asked to go to HH with a friend so I have zero help :-(
Hope your LO switches back to her happy self soon!

13 weeks here... We had what I thought was maybe the 3 month growth spurt at 11 weeks but HOLY MOLY!!!! This is cray cray! We usually have the sweetest quiet girl who smiles all day. This week it's like she has been replaced by an ogre baby. Screaming on the boob yet wanting to eat all day, so so tired but won't sleep, doesn't want to play, but also doesn't want to be held, sit in the swing, or anything really. It's like she is super pissed at everything!

Just keep telling yourselves that this too shall pass. Think we are starting to see light at end of tunnel, finally!

The reason I like the concept of the "wonder week" is that these fussy/cranky/tiny terror periods precede leaps in development, so I just keep telling myself to look forward to her doing something new or making new discoveries.

Juliemay623, I hope LO has a better day!

We just got done with this! Today is the first day we have our sweet baby back. The 4 days prior have been horrible!

I've never known it any other way! I take it back, after being in the crib all night and getting up every 1.5 hours he slept 3 hours in my chest this morning. Stinker.

Just curious..... Those of you who are seeing the light at the end of this really dark tunnel, about how many days did your LO's gs last??
