FTM here, are weeks 6-8 really that tough for all babies? What makes it harder?

My girlie is 7w+ 4 and so far no difference I don’t think! 😂 a tad fussy in the evening maybe if I’m being very picky🤔 she definitely didn’t wake up at 6 weeks and choose terror which is what I was expecting! She’s just getting more and more alert.

My baby is 7 weeks old today, at 6 weeks she had a few days where she cried constantly pretty much every time she was awake. It would also take us hours to get her to nap in the day and then she kept becoming really overtired, one time it took us 3.5 hours!! She also had a few nights of waking up every 2 hours in the night but rest assured this literally lasted 3 days at most and now she is back to her normal self 😊 2 wakes in the night, really content in the day and no longer crying for no reason. Apparently all of this happens because they go through a growth spurt at 6 weeks x

My baby was an angel for the first 2 weeks, 3-4 started to get fussy and would wake for 2 hours or so in a night and then 5-6 has honestly been hell, he refuses to sleep during the day and is just crying constantly unless he's being fed but then throws up from drinking to much but constantly spits his dummy out. He's also waking more at night too 🫠 with a toddler as well, it is so HARD, but perhaps I'm just unlucky.
