12 week growth spurt

[loskadoodle]

Its taken over our house and let me tell you... Someone is miserable!! All he wants to do is eat, cry and be held. Thank goodness for baby wearing!!

Aww, I remember Mia's spurt around that time...such a different baby. Good luck, hopefully he will get through it soon and you will have your happy, little man back.

I <3 babywearing. I'm actually buying a super cute ringsling today. I have been excited for days about buying this sling. I hope the growth spurt is short but gets a lot done

Growth spurts are tough! My little one has always been one to want to be held a lot. I remember the day I felt she was big enough to wear her I was freaking elated to have 2 hands. I almost cried. Now she's so independent. I can only hold her for a little bit before she cries to get put down and tear up the place. Ripping pages from magazines and scattering them is her fav. The point is, this too will get better

Oh, the 12-week spurt was really rough for us, too. Of course, we also (stupidly) planned an 8-hour road trip during that time, her first time away from home. :-| That was a mess.

Don't worry, it will pass! As soon as we got past that spurt she did turn into a totally different baby, and lots more fun!

Whoa, your baby is 12 weeks old already??

If it makes you feel any better I don't remember Macy's. That time is all overshadowed by her 2 year old temper tantrums. Oh God. Today is a day I wish I had a job. Not for the money but to have a break from a dramatic 2 year old.

I was dreading the separation anxiety stage and now I'm dreading the temper tantrum phase. I know how time flies and it will be here too quickly.

I was just thinking I can't remember the 12 week growth spurt of my two at all either, but the 2 year temper tantrums, yes. The ones at 3 were even worse. And at four, they still occasionally still show up. And I'm assuming they will cease right around the time Maisy starts having them...

Oh goody! Can't wait for that! ;D

Tell me about it! It went way too quick!!! I go back to work in a week and a half.

As I've said before, give me a room full of 2 year olds over 1 3 year old any day. Although today my 4.5 year old had a throw himself on the floor fit about the temperature of his water. That was a super good time.
