8/9 week growth spurt?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
nak... and everywhere else!!

just looking for reassurance... DD is 8.5 weeks and since yesterday has been nursing just about every hour! she did this around 5-6 wks too. kellymom says the next spurt is usually around 3 months, so this is a little early, but i'm assuming/hoping it's still "normal." at night, she sleeps w/us & nurses side-lying, so i'm not sure how often exacty she nurses then, but i def. woke up more frequently last night to find her nursing. her diapers are normal--well, a little more frequent & wet--- and yellow mustard poop. nothing seems to bother her otherwise.

My DS never followed the "growth spurt schedule." He seemed to have spurts every 2-3 weeks the first 3 months. Sounds normal to me.
