growth spurts
« on: August 07, 2007, 18:17:13 pm »
Hi

Not really sur which board to post this in! Could someone give me a rough outline of when the growth spurts are supposed to happen so that I may be a bit better at reading and understanding my DS's cues and when to expect them?

Thanks

Common times for growth spurts are during the first few days at home and around 7-10 days, 2-3 weeks, 4-6 weeks, 3 months, 4 months, 6 months and 9 months (more or less). Babies don't read calendars, however, so your baby may do things differently.

Growth spurts usually last 2-3 days, but sometimes last a week or so

Hope this helps you a little  :-*

Is there any way you can up his daytime feeds at all? This may help with the night wakings
