Re: Growth spurts?
by Anonymous
I now have proof dd has been 'growth spurting'! In 3 weeks shes gained a whole lb (bearing in mind up til now 5-6oz in 3 weeks is the norm!)The HVs at the clinic didn't know what to think as they were going on about, we don't expect much weight gain as you've just started weaning, maybe even lose some, especially as you're doing this new fangled BLW thing! then put her on scales and their eyes nearly popped out! Very satisfying. Shes also grown 2 cm! Her sleep is just starting to settle down again, I'm blaming on growth spurt, slept through from 6 weeks (I know I was spoiled) then bamm waking 3 times for feeds at 23 weeks. Bit of a shock to the system! Now worked back down to 1 night feed which is manageable, living in hope this might get dropped again soon though. At beginning of BLW she wasn't that interested in food, maybe because she couldn't get it in quick enough so just wanted to nurse more. sorry if this rambled
