S will be 6wks on Wednesday. Since Saturday night she has been really fussy and waking often. Is this too early for the 6wk growth spurt? My wonder week app shows she should be going through a leap now, but I thought we had this the week before at 4.5wks (ending last Sunday) as that week she fought naps so hard and was pretty cranky (though her night time sleep wasn't affected). We had a whole week break last week and she basically slept pretty much the entire time, napping for 3-4hr stretches, eating less frequently and for shorter periods and just generally being a happy baby. We even got a few 5-6hr sleep stretches at the beginning of the night, which made for happy Mummy and Daddy too!

Then yesterday she wanted to eat pretty much all day. It was so hard to put her down and if we did it was for about 10-15mins and she was crying again. The last two nights she has been waking every 2hrs to eat and taking ages to go back down again.

How long did your LO's 6wk growth spurt last and can someone reassure me this sleep regression is only temporary?
