Is this the 6 week growth spurt????

DD won't nap. I can't put her down. She falls asleep nursing then cries and wants back on. I'm so tired I forgot I made DH a sandwich. She's fussy and restless and just wants me to hold her with boob in mouth. Tell me this won't last forever !!!!!

  • Sounds like it. Mine lasted 5 days. It was terrible. Call in reinforcements if you can.

  • I sent DH to guest room and told him to rest now bc he's on night duty this weekend.
     
  • Em is 5w2days and I'm wondering f we are at the 6 week growth spurt early. Earlier this week all she did was eat and sleep - for long stretches! Yesterday and last night and today she took 5 minute cat naps and just hasn't been settled. Can this be the 6 week spurt??

  • I think we're in it too. For us it's marathon nursing sessions. He usually only takes 45 minutes. We are now at 1 hour minimum or falling sound asleep during so not getting satisfied, then wanting the boob again in an hour.

  • Us too DS will be 6 weeks Sunday. He's eating at the boob more than usual and is constantly fussy. Takes hours for him to get settled for bedtime!!!
  • Sounds identical to our situation. For the past 3 days. She is 6 weeks tomorrow.
    BFP #1 (7/13/12) MC (8/14) 9 weeks. D & C 8/17.
    BFP #2 (5/18/13) due 1/26/14. Grow baby grow!
    Its a surprise! Team green!


  • Sounds familiar! Just today, my sweet baby has turned into a terror. He's napped for no more than an hour at a time, and if he's not suck suck sucking he's screeeeaming. I feel terrible because it sounds like he's in actual pain, but it's not his gassy or hungry scream. Right now he's konked out on me, and I just hope it'll last at least an hour. Or until 2am when DH takes over. Either would be great. He's 5w5d.
