Growth Spurt?

LO is eleven weeks today. She's been sleeping so well at night (between four and seven hours after her nightly bottles). But for three out of the last four nights, she is awake every 2 1/2-3 hours to eat. I'm the type that it takes me forever to fall back asleep, so I'm now losing a lot of time. From what I've read, it isn't time for another growth spurt. But I'm really hoping that's what this is. I'm worried that she won't go back to her normal habits.

Do babies follow those time frames for growth spurts? Or are they just an idea of when they happen? 

Nothing has changed about our nightly routine and she's acting like herself during the day... just occasionally fussy.

Sounds like the 3 month growth spurt. Good luck.

DD is going to be 6-weeks on Wednesday, and I'm in the same exact boat as you, so I'm thinking they are both going through growth spurts!

My little guy will be 11 weeks tomorrow and has been horribly fussy and always seems to be hungry.  This has been going on for a couple days now!  He was the perfect baby the past few weeks.  Eating and sleeping and being happy in between.  I hope this is a growth spurt!  I can't keep up with how much he wants to eat!
