Help, 3 mth growth spurt?????
« on: August 07, 2005, 09:49:27 am »
One month ago i started pu/pd for, my then 11 week old, who would not sleep during the day at all. After 10 days solid of staying in and not giving i once she goes down no problem and will normally sleep 90 mins, i know i'm very lucky. She is on 3hr easy, and for the last ten days has slept through the night from 8 till 6/7.
But in the last 2-3 days she's harder to get off to sleep, waking for a big feed in the night, waking up after 30-45 mins in naps. Please tell me this is a growth spurt she has also fed 30 mins early a coulple of times.
I have sort of answered the question myself i think, but i just need a bit of reasurance, as am feeling all my hard work is going down the drain!!!!!!!!  :shock:

could very well be a growth spurt - was your dd born early at all?  that may be why it's showing up a little later.

don't worry - there are usually setbacks at some point.  if you're consistent & up her calories (bf frequently or just add more to her bottles if ff) she'll go back to her wonderful sleeping pattern.
