yes, she's also been eating more lately... she started eating cereal last month, and a week ago vegetables, before that she was only formula fed, so, yes, she eats a lot more now

How long has she been more sleepy? If it just been the last few days, I would say a growth spurt as well. But if it's been for a little while, I would say you should talk with your doctor.
But definitly enjoy the sleeping child! I so wish my 7-month old was that way. Nap times and bed times are always a pain with much crying.
If it helps at all, most babies have a growth spurt around 4 months and then again at about 6-7 months. I'm not sure when the other growth spurts are, but they are pretty regular and normal.
Enjoy the rest!

Hi You dont say how old Bub is as this could just be a matter of Baby having a growth spurt and they do tend to get tired as there bodies go through a lot. Please trust yourself if you are worried no Doctor will be upset with you if you bring Bub in for a check up it shows how much you care. Just keep an eye on Bubs diet one day of not eating properly wont be too bad as long as over the week bub has eaten a good range of food
All the best

Your baby is probably not getting enough sleep during the day. Both of my kids (3 1/2 and 1 1/2) go to be around 7 PM and wake up about 6 AM. They both take 2 hour naps during the day as well.

Perhaps she's not sleeping enough during the day, if my babies miss a nap they go to bed much earlier than usual. Your baby might also be going through a growth spurt and need the extra sleep, that's when they grow!

An early bedtime is not something to worry about. Many children at a few months will push their bedtimes forward. My six month old is a great sleeper, she's alert as can be, but after two hours awake you can tell she's getting tired. It's not a problem by itself. Babies need sleep to grow.

My kids acted this way when they went through a growth spurt.
They were extremely hungry and extremely tired. Even today when my 10 yo grows its the same pattern.

Is your child super busy during the day. My son is 12 and is on two football teams and falls asleep by 8. Take your daughter to the doctor ASAP.

She could be going through a growth spurt- that really takes it out of a baby.
Hes she been eating more than usual?

Alot of babies sleep more when they are in a growth spurt, but I would talk to the Dr.
