My baby hasn't slept through the night yet, but she generally is 'sleepy through the night'. But last night she was wide awake at 4am, eager to play. Then she had a huge poo. What is going on?!? How can I prevent this from happening tonight?

Could your baby be going through a growth spurt? 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
