I will try to answer this questions in this post. But also, I do need your opinions regarding this matter so please feel free to leave useful comments at the comment section.

Dealing With Baby Growth Spurts

When a baby is on his/her growth spurts era, he/she tends to be more hungrier than before. Also sleeping time schedule changes due to this matter.

The mother will be experiencing lack of sleep. She needs to feed her baby more often during the night or midnight from 4-5 times with 2-3 hours interval. This is just pretty normal. I know it is really hard to be in this kind of situation.

You may consult to a family doctor who knows about this kind of situation to seek advice on what you can do about it. Usually, they will just tell you that "it is normal" and you are not the only one experiencing this.

My personal suggestion is you take a rest or make some sleep when your baby is also sleeping or after you breastfeed her/him. It will be just like you are adjusting with her/his feeding and sleeping schedule.

That all for now, pretty short but straight forward advice. More of the baby growth spurts post and advices to come.
