is this normal? if not whats going on?
my 9 week old dd was pretty much STTN (11-6) up until this week. she was napping in the morning and early afternoon.
now im lucky if she gets in a two 30 min catnaps in the am and maybe 1 20 min in the afternoon. I feel like she might be tired bc once 5:00 hits she is miserable.... shes also eating a lot more.
she normally doesnt take any bottles in the middle of the night but shes been getting up every 3 hrs.
whats going on???
I miss sleeping 6 or 7 hours stretches at night

is she finishing every bottle during the day? maybe she is hungry and you need to up ounces?
if thats the case, give her more during the day and she might sleep better

At nine weeks, I'm going to say growth spurt. Sometimes they totally change their sleeping habits.

normal. sleepy newborns wake-up and start to complain around 6-8m, yours was easy going I guess  also growth spurt probably
Ours woke up at 6w ... its when we started the swaddle hardcore! We got a swing, sound machine, the works!

I just upped her a half an ounce. 5 oz is a decent amount for her age right?

does she finish every bottle? once they are finishing bottles consistantly, up .5 ounce. keep going until the arent finishing all bottles in a 48 hour period
Jack was taking 5-6 oz every 4 hours at 9-10weeks
it could also be a growth spurt. they change habits SO often!
