Is there a 9 week growth spurt?

Friday night my LO pretty much STTN. I jinxed myself posting about it. Now he won't nap, be put down or sleep longer than two hours at a time. Anyone else experience something similar around this time?

Oh goodness, this is my LO exactly. He was 9 weeks this past friday. He certainly has not been sleeping as well and seems to be more hungry than usual. Also...extra FUSSY! ugh..poor thing cried all night last night.

Same here! He has been a beast to deal with lately! My mom came over today so I could sleep from 12-5 since nobody is sleeping around here. I hope they all get through this soon!

All of the growth spurts are listed at specific weeks, but some babies hit them earlier or later than the average.  There is a growth spurt at 6 weeks and the next is at 12 weeks.  However there is something called the Wonder Weeks and there is a WW at 8ish weeks.

I was going to suggest the wonder week thing, they say they can go through it between 7.5 and 9.5 weeks, and I would say my LO is more on the 9 week side of that! Extra fussy, clingy and daytime sleep has been screwy.
