Need advice!! My son is 2 weeks old and the last two days or so he's hungry every two hours or so. Sometimes every hour or half hour he cries for his bottle. We feed him a bottle for 4 oz but he drinks from 1 to 3 oz. I read that they have a growth spirt from 7 to 14 days and that could cause him to eat more. I feed him supplement breast feeding formula a lot more than I feed him breast milk because of issues with my nipples. I had a blister on my good nipple and it stopped me from breast feeding or pumping for a few days. I've basically just been told to feed him however much he wants and not to worry about the ounces. But any advice or ideas on what's going on would be appreciated.

I told him he gets 3 oz at 7pm they ended up not giving him the 3 oz till 7:30 and we got there at 8:30 to pick him up and was feeding him again I lost my mind it pisses me off bc he has a...
Okay Rylan is nursing every hour and will stay on for hours, and still acts hungry even if I give him a pumped bottle. Is he not getting enough from me? Any advice welcome 💙
my son just turned three months yesterday should I be feeding him every four hours? cause I'm pretty bad about feeding him every time he cries and he always takes the bottle so I'm feeding him like every two hours
Opinions on hungrier baby milk? My girl is drinking well over 30 oz in 24 hours. I tried her with water inbetween feeds but she just won't settle in till she has milk as she's hungry not thirsty. She's awake like 18 hours a day 😭
@catehughes, thanks love. I call my boys little prince and baby prince I always consider myself a queen! 😆
