Sleep went downhill a 9-10 weeks for us but I don't think it was a growth spurt. At 4 months DS went from 1 nightfeed to 2 for a week and it was tiring. He is just over 6 months now and he had a short growth spurt where he only ate more often in the day with no real sleep disruptions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-growth-spurt-was-the-worstmost-exhausting#post-283265 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 18:22:18 +0000 cvbee 283265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely the 6 week for me, due to the feeding every hour, plus those days he fed for a long time. It was nuts. </p> <p>The 4 month sleep regression has drove me the most batty, but the 6 week one was more exhausting to me, as I remember it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-growth-spurt-was-the-worstmost-exhausting#post-283242 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 17:39:36 +0000 regberadaisy 283242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsdaredevil: ditto. 4 months and the sleep has been crap for about 3 weeks. Crap, I tell you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-growth-spurt-was-the-worstmost-exhausting#post-283172 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 16:11:15 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 283172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For us 6 weeks was the worst, nursing round the clock. The others involved more sleep so they were more manageable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-growth-spurt-was-the-worstmost-exhausting#post-283144 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 15:52:47 +0000 SugarplumsMom 283144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Argh. LO is fast approaching her 3 mon spurt. If it's anything like the 6 week one, it'll be torture! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-growth-spurt-was-the-worstmost-exhausting#post-283124 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 15:28:35 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 283124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 week growth spurt was hell.</p> <p>3 month growth spurt has been hell, and it has lasted almost a month. So far this one has been the worst! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-growth-spurt-was-the-worstmost-exhausting#post-283115 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 15:19:36 +0000 Honeybee 283115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The 6 week growth spurt was the worst for both my kids. By the time the three month one rolled around, I pretty much had the comfort techniques down pat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-growth-spurt-was-the-worstmost-exhausting#post-283070 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 14:42:00 +0000 Weagle 283070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't have a clue that the 2 week one was a growth spurt until after the fact. 6 week was tiring, but not horrible because I was anticipating it. The 3 month was bad for us. Lots of nursing, very little napping. The others included lots of sleep during the day, so I was caught off guard by the little she got. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-growth-spurt-was-the-worstmost-exhausting#post-283057 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 14:31:35 +0000 loveisstrange 283057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Three month was the WORST. She was a screaming hot mess for a solid 2 weeks. 6 weeks was bad but do-able. 10day/2weeks was no problem and her 4 month one was almost non-existant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-growth-spurt-was-the-worstmost-exhausting#post-283052 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 14:28:28 +0000 BelugaBean 283052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 7 weeks today and I think she may be in another growth spurt. It's not as bad as the one at ten days although she's fighting naps like crazy and almost constantly wanting to nurse. The ten day growth spurt lasted like a week to a week and a half and she was pretty much always nursing from around noon until bedtime (at eleven-ish). </p> <p>I've read some people say that the twelve week/three month one is horrible too though. I know all babies are different but I was just wondering, which growth spurt was the most exhausting for you? I'm hoping this is how this growth spurt is going to go and that it'll be over in a day or two. I'm also hoping that the three month one is easier than the one she had at ten days old. </p>
