Growth spurt or teething?

[Lu28]

Aisling has been pretty unsettled for the past couple of days, very fussy and tending to cry / moan a bit which she wouldn't usually do. She's been dribbling, chewing her fists etc for a few weeks now and I'm wondering if her gums are at her. The one thing which seems to make her a bit happier though is bfing. She's feeding more often than normal and has stopped sleeping through the night.

So I'm not sure if she's just going through a growth spurt or if she's teething? If she's teething I'm happy to give her Calpol if she needs it but I don't want to assume that's what it is and give it to her for a growth spurt! It's so confusing, I want a manual!

This started a few weeks ago with Olivia. She went from sleeping till 6am to waking 3-4 times a night for feeds and was crying alot more. I thought it was a growth spurt but nearly 3 weeks later she is still waking in the night but seems to be slowly dropping the feeds (we are down to 2 now). Hopefully she will drop another feed soon as I would like to sleep for more than 2 hours at a time xx

If you get hold a manual, send me a copy lol x

Oh god, I'm not sure I could deal with getting up that often at night anymore, I thought those days were behind us! These babies seem to like to keep us on our toes!
