Growth spurt at three months?

Question

My son has been sleeping about 5-6 hours at night. Last night he fell asleep at 10:30 and was up to nurse at 1 am, 3 am and 5 am and the we got up at 8 am (it's Labor Day). The kids and I go back to school this week (I'm a school administrator). Please tell me this will pass in a few days!

Answer 1

Three months is a typical time for a growth spurt.  Usually it only lasts a few days, but kids don't read the calendar.  There's nothing to do but fill up his tummy and watch him grow.  There's often another one around six months - maybe you'll luck out and it'll be around Thanksgiving and you won't have to be this tired while working.

Answer 2

Very common. They eat and sleep more

Answer 3

My daughter went through a growth spurt about 3 weeks ago and she is just settling back down. I can't remember my son being this bad but every baby is different. She could be fine in a couple of days but it could take a couple of weeks. Good Luck.
