3 month growth spurt

How did it present itself in your baby? Is it possible for it to happen a week or two after 3 months hits?

Remy has been soooooo fussy the past few days. Just NOT himself at all. He's been waking up more at night, nothing makes him happy during the day, he's not smiling or talking as much and he fusses at the bottle. He was also extremely tired all day today. He usually wakes up so happy, gives a huge smile and coos at me until I take him out, but the past few days he wakes up miserable! He doesn't last more than a few minutes in his Rock n Play and usually he can sit in there for quite a while just playing with toys. But then when I hold him, he's not happy laying, sitting up, or even walking around. Very cranky little boy!!! I can tell he's not sick, and I'm pretty sure he's not teething yet. I just assume that it has to be a growth spurt.

Sounded exactly how Declan was. I can always tell something is off when he won't eat

How long did it last for Declan? I'm hoping it's not a long time like they say it can be!

It was about 3days. I want to say three because I can remember being very happy that it was going on when I was still home from work. It will be over before you know it and then you will have your happy baby back.

Kyah was also very fussy during her growth spurts. She would want to eat constantly only she would drink, unlatch, fuss, drink, unlatch, fuss, over and over. She would also be very tired. Her sleeping schedule would go way off as well. Some nights she would stay up all night (literally), and then go to sleep in the morning. I think hers lasted for about 5 days.

Matthew had his the day we got home from the hospital when he was in there for an pneumonia. He was 2 months 2 weeks ish so it can happen earlier as well as later. Theres no set time for it to happen it just depends on baby. But he was pretty much the same and stayed up all night barley naped let alone sleep lol he was really fussy and fussed while nursing. He was just mr cranky pants lol. It lasted like 3 days maybe 4 but it really is over before you know it!
