My girl is 5months plus, and lately she seems to be having a growth spur. she was able to sleep for 5-6hrs through the night previously but she wakes up every 2+hrs in hunger crying for milk. PD has given us green light to start solid as she is constantly going hungry, but it is impossible to give her solid in the night and she wouldn't drink more than 100ml each time. Anyone with similar experience can advice?

Growth spurts could take place within the first year at two, three and/or six weeks, at three months and/or at six months. It usually last for 2-3 days but could also go up to a week. During which your baby will feed more and would need less sleep (hence waking up more frequently at night or taking shorter naps). Other signs would include your baby appearing more restless and clingy. Growth spurts could also cause your baby to have bowel movements at night due to digestive changes. If your baby is indeed going through a growth spurt, you just need to be attentive to our baby’s cues for more milk or attention. And very importantly, take care of yourself. Drink more water and get as much rest as you could. Here’s an article on baby’s growth spurt: http://www.babycentre.co.uk/a25012757/baby-growth-spurts
