6 month growth spurt

We FINALLY seemed to have turned the corner with Oscar's sleep and reflux issues but today he is really grumpy and just wants to nurse all the time - could it be another growth spurt?

Did anyone else notice one around 6 months ish?

I dont think I noticed one.....could he want comfort from teething?

Simon eats and eats all the time and is continually busting out of his clothes at a ridiculous pace. I think he's been on a growth spurt from birth.
I'd guess teething as the cause of the grumps.
Simon gets the grumps when he's frustrated by trying to sit up or roll over or things like that, too. It can put him in quite a mood if I leave him at it too long.

Darwin's quite irritable lately and wants to nurse a lot, but I think it's because he's feeling his teeth. Lots of babies do go through a spurt around six months, but they're also often teething so it's hard to tell just what's causing the moods and extra nursing!
