What are your LO growth spurt signs?

candyfloss · Nov 6th, 2009, 07:42 AM

My LO is nearly 13weeks and a week ago started getting extra fussy...last couple of days he seems to have been snacking with lots of little feeds and only staying awake for about an hour and a half before suddenly wanting to sleep again for just under an hour....and today he's feeding and sleeping LOADS! given in and am lying on the sofa with him sleeping on me til the next feed, sod the dishes/tidying!

Hoping the feeding increasing means I'll have my happy chap back soon who will be awake and happy for more than an hour rather than this fussy little guy!

What does your LO do?

I have 10-14 days of night waking, moodiness, fussing when eating, clinging to me, crying if I leave him in his chair/mat, HAS to be on me all the time, then 2-3 days of long frequent feeds and sleeping inbetween then about 3-5 days of gradually easing back into sleeping less, sleeping better at night and feeding less. We're on the last 3days after 2 1/2weeks of sheer hell.

Agee with Kitten's post. Olivia went from sleeping from 9.00pm until 6.00am to waking 5-6 times a night!! (she still hasnt gone back to sleeping through!) and was just generally very clingy and sleepy.

Just use this time to rest and get your feet up xx

Ah yes, the clinginess...forgot to mention that bit!

He doesn't sleep through anyway yet so nights don't feel too different.....

Thanks for your replies ladies :-)
