It seems to be the pattern with L because last time he had a growth spurt he stopped STTN for almost a week. And now for the past 3 nights he has woken up once at 3am to feed and I am pretty certain he is going thru his 3 month growth spurt...at least i am hoping that's what's going on because i am remaining hopeful that he will go back to STTN very soon!

P's sleep gets really disrupted during Wonder Weeks and then will usually go back to her regular sleep pattern.
Hope it passes soon for you!!!

@runsyellowlites: i didn;t know too much about the wonder weeks, but i just looked it up and he doesn;t seem to be in one of them now.... i guess we'll see!

@PurpleUnicorn: Be sure to calculate age from you edd. I didn't think they matched P either until I adjusted the date, and now they match up almost perfectly!
Things like teething and growth spurts have also interfered at times but the WW do the most "damage". lol
-
@runsyellowlites: yep I did! he is 14 weeks for real, that would make him 15 weeks since EDD. I looked at this site and it seems there won;t be a WW until he is 18 weeks (19 past EDD).

My LO had one night during a recent growth spurt when she woke up at 3am. I tried to just give her a paci and rock her but she was clearly hungry so I went ahead and nursed her. She chugged it down and went to sleep. The next night she went back to sttn. When I know LO is going through a spurt a try to feed her as much as possible in the evenings. (usually offer the breast every 1.5 hours). That way she fills up and is able to sleep longer.

@PurpleUnicorn: "fussiness starts around 15 weeks/3.5 months, peaks at 17 weeks and skills appear around 19 weeks. It usually lasts 1-6 weeks"
The first "grey week" always messes with P's sleep, then usually she'll settle until the actual WW & then have jacked sleep & be clingy, then after it passes she'll be back to normal.
Here's a pic of the chart

@MamaMoose: lol, yesterday evening, there was no option to feed him often or not - he was demanding it every 30-45 minutes! i was just happy he finally went to sleep at his usual time and stayed asleep until 3am! and he was clearly hungry so we just skipped the paci altogether like we had been trying the previous nights....i am pretty hopeful that he goes back to STTN (fingers crossed)

Yep. At 17 months, still. She'll have a few good weeks, few bad weeks, etc. At the end of a few bad weeks she's always bigger or smarter some how.
