The Milk Monster - help needed!

[history_girls]

My LO has been on cow and gate comfort from 5 weeks to 10 1/2 weeks in order to make her poo - it didn't really do anything so we moved back to normal cow and gate. We've had no problems except that our lovely sleeping at night baby has gone from having at least a 6 hour gap between feeds at night to wanting to eat every 3 hours -now she has always liked her milk but this is unlike her. We uped her from 6 oz to 7 oz and she will sometimes take all of it sometimes not. Feeds during the day have remained fairly constant. Then it struck me at 2.30am this morning - comfort milk is thick so more filling?

Would I gain longer stretches of sleep from her on hungry baby milk just at night? or is she growing?

Any thoughts ladies as we are exhausted!

Possibly a growth spurt, i think they hit one at around the 3 month mark so your pretty close to it.

I would try and ride it out for a week to see if its a growth spurt, and if not then look at the possibilty of switching back milk
