Most babies go through several growth spurts in the first year and a half. What is it? Growth spurts occur when the baby goes through a period of rapid weight gain or length, but also when he begins to hold his head, to sit, to turn from side to side, when he starts walking or talking. When do they take place? Babies don't read calendars or follow a schedule, so periods are estimated. How long? Growth shoots usually last 2-3 days, but sometimes even a week. Signs of a growth spurt?
