I wouldn't do formula either, I think it sounds growth-spurt like. It will prolly level off again soon.
As for sleep...Jo sleeps fine, much better than either of my boys. But she still wakes several times. But we bedshare, so it's no biggie. She still nurses pretty frequently, I guess because she is more of a grazer than a hard-core eater.
Willow is also a snacker! It really freaked me out in the beginning... like, "What is this?!? 5 minute feeds?! Is she even getting a full feed?!" But she's done nothing but gain weight so I've relaxed a bit. She eats 5 - 10 minutes, mostly in between that length of time... and in the day she'll go either hourly between feeds with the odd 3 hour nap in the mix... then at night she pretty solidly sleeps in 3 1/2 hour chunks. But, I must say... her sleeping habits are really divine. I don't have to stand around bouncing her or anything... when 10pm or around there hits, she pretty much goes straight to bed-time type sleeping patterns... she just solidly sleeps right after a feed. I know with my son I had a bit more stress at night at times. But I'm not a first time mom this time, so maybe that has something to do with it since I feed her before she ever cries.

I agree about the formula. And I was going to write what Suregena did. My little guy goes to bed around 9 and wakes up around 12:30 to eat. He eats again around 3 and then 6. It's tiring but he's huge so all this eating is working...lol.
Suregena your kids are so beautiful.
<3 Thank you! So are yours!
Everyone's kids around here are lovely.
Cute, cute kids!! I can't believe they are all growing so fast!
Thank you girls. I'll stick with it. It's so tiring though.
Suregena your little ones are gorgeous xx xx
Just wanted to check in and say hello. Summer is going so fast for us. School starts in about a month.
Has anyone heard from Cinss? I don't think she's been on in a while.
I can't believe the due date group after ours is almost done having their babies. It's amazing how fast time has gone.
Hi 3Men, i am still around, mainly keeping an eye on the ttc boy threads, the blue swayers seem to be having great success this year which makes me really happy. Cyrus is going great, he is such an easy baby and is full of smiles these days :)

Cinss your little guy is so cute. I can't believe how big he is. How are your girls doing? Is it cold where you are now?
The girls are good too, the novelty has worn off now wanting to hold the baby all the time etc :) It is just the end of Winter here so it should be warming up shortly, i love summer here it is warm enough to have baby in just a nappy so lots of skin contact, and i just love looking at the chubby little legs.Quote:
