When is the next spurt?

[Arcanegirl]

It seems like Alex is feeding alot again, when is the next growth spurt meant to be at?

 

[Shifter]

6 weeks is typically a big one, but they have them roughly every two weeks at first. Not sure when it slows down though.

I've heard its between 4 - 6 weeks. Isobel is eating more at the moment.

 

[Arcanegirl]

only a day between our babies, maybe going through the spurts together.

6 weeks (this was a killer for me ) then 12 weeks I think?

Ava is having a growth spurt at the moment feeding every 2 hours lol, our babys are days apart so there also spurting together lol

My baby has been feeding almost constantly since the day she was born lol So I don't know about spurts.

Does she feed every 2 hours overnight aswell? Alex still sleeps well at 3-4 hours though hes been hard to settle past 2 nights.

yep she feeds every 2 hour nightly its a nightmare!! feed her for 15 mins - 30 mins, wind her, and then she sleeps for about hour and wants a feed again!
so everynight im preying she sleeps longer lol

Jack has fed every 2 hours during the day most days since he was about 10 days old, with cluster feeds every hour to an hour and a half between 5 and 9pm. Thankfully he goes longer at night, usually about 4 hours.

Caine cluster feeds all day to pack it up for night now, feeding off the boob every hour or hour and half or every 3 hours if he has 5 or 6 oz of EBM. He has always done this, though now he has a full 5 hour stretch at night, then back to cluster feeding between 3-5am onwards

Every time i go to get Holly weighted the HV tells me shes had a growth spurt!!

Isobel is eating every two hours during the day. She cluster feeds every half hour from 5pm onwards.. she does upto 4/5 hours but we do use formula at night.
