or something different?

DS 6 weeks and 2 days. feeds 2 or occassionally 3 hourly in day and same at night really.

breastfed except 7 and 930pm.

putting lots wight on, jumped from 20 to 80 percentile.

monday he fed all afternoon an assumed growth spurt, really upped my milk supply engorged again and leaking etc.

yesterday he was brilliant, 3 hours between each feed and very content

however horrendous night last night, settled him at 10pm, woke 11, 1230, 130 ,3 and 5 and then up - seemed hungry each time and i had lots of milk but could he really have needed to feed that much?! i managed a total of 2.5 hours sleep and feel awful.

he happy now and feeding well again

please tell me it was the spurt and with monday day and tues night it will now be over????
