Growth Spurt

We went to the mountains for the weekend (Friday - Sunday) and Emma did great. In fact, she was on a better schedule traveling than she is at home. She would eat every 4 hours and she was asleep by 8:30pm and slept til 1:30am and then down again for another 3 hours. It was great! Then we came home and the growth spurt began. She ate every hour on the hour all Monday and then Monday night. Tuesday, she ate every 2 hours and today...we are all over the place. In the night, she ate every 2 hours. I haven't had more than an hour break between feeds this morning. So tired!

She was 8 weeks old Tuesday - so we are hitting the 9 week growth spurt a little early. Also, because I am extremely self-conscious and doubt myself all the time about milk production (especially during cluster feeding), I am trying a new herbal supplement. We will see how this one works. Motherlove was great, just a lil expensive for a 2 oz. bottle.

I ordered a 4 oz. bottle of the new stuff for the same price. Slightly different ingredients. It's from Kerry Herbals Nursing Mother Blend.
