growing maybe?

So Arora has a wonderful sleep schedule she goes to bed between 7-8 and gets up between 6-7. Normally with one night time feeding around 3am. then she will nap every 1.5 hours all day and sleep for about 45 min for each nap. She is so happy and so well rested.... well used to be. Starting Monday she has been waking up every 2 hours all night long. I am so tired! I feel like I have an infant back, last night was the worst, went to be at 8 then up at 12,1, 3, 5 and then up for good at 6. David called in "sick" to the internship to help me out. I wish sometimes she would take a bottle, but she is so stubborn. So for breakfast I gave her twice as much food as I had been. about 1 tablespoon of rice and 1 tablespoon of bananas. She scarfed it down, and is still nursing all the time today too. We think she is revving up for a growth spurt or something. when I visit my friend Bridgett I weigh Arora, last week it said 16lb this week it says.....15.5 lbs mmmm. I don't know but I'm not worried about her yet.
When i was on my mom's walk today we were all talking about desserts and I realized I hadn't eaten yet .When I got home and David and I went to Applebee's for lunch. My steak was way over done, so they made me a new one and gave us free dessert. Yippee! We brought it home for later. If you didn't know it snowed here yesterday, and today it is raining/hailing. Such is life n Rexburg.

Sorry about the sleeping thing. That has to be hard when she was on such a good schedule. We are right there with you - Rowan still wakes up about every 3 hours to eat :( Sounds like a growth spurt.

Actually, it sounds like she's right on schedule - on schedule for her 6-month growth spurt, that is! Hang in there - the two-hour gaps between feedings won't last forever! Love you bunches!

Yep, growth spurts happen and it is so draining, expecially if you are nursing! I remember being completley exhausted when Carson hit his 6 month growth spurt. Don't worry, it'll pass!
