Hi
I have posted a few times recently about my baby's behaviour lately. My 6 wk old feeds constantly between 4 and 9pm every night interspersed with general grumpiness and impatience at the breast. Today she has started early. This has been happening for about 2 weeks and has had me analysing constantly for what could be wrong. It seems according to the Health Visitor that she is having a growth spurt which normally lasts 3-4 days but every baby is different. I am personally beginning to wonder whether she is just v. hungry she is gaining a lot of weight and am considering frequent top ups or swapping to ff altogether but I know it has it's disadvantages also. Has anyone experienced anything similar and if so do you have any advice to give. Thanks in advance for your support.
