My son just turned 4 months and he eats a lot like 5 ounces every 2 - 3 hours is that bad ? Should I start introducing him to cereal ? He's on enfamil formula maybe mixing cereal in his milk will keep his tummy full for a longer time ? I don't want to be over feeding him , he also spits up a lot & sometimes I have a really hard time getting his gases out he randomly gets these tantrums out of nowhere because he has trapped gas & the only way he calms down is if I pick him up and walk around the house or rock him I've been giving him gas drops that the doctor prescribed but I don't think it's helping much I don't know what else to do he's really good all day & than at night he acts up and wakes up in the middle of the night too many times crying cause he's in pain , help me ladies 😳🤔🙄😑😫

A little bit of cereal will help, also try giving him 'pauses' while he feeds. Take the bottle out and burp him, it might help him burp between his feeding.

my daughter last night had 3 oz of formula with cereal. Some babies are picky though my daughter likes the cereal to be a bit thick. So you have to try out how thick your baby will like the cereal! ☺

I hope it helps! usually the cereal will tell you for every 2 ounces put a tablespoon of cereal, but some babies like it a bit thicker. @snowbunny

@snowbunny, my daughter is the same way, she just turned 3 months today and usually eats almost 6 oz every 2 hours. I was giving her Enfamil gentle lease and she was acting the same way, super fussy, gassy, and always throwing up, even when I burped her every ounce of two. So I decided to switch her to soy, and she is SOO much better and happier overall!

It won't hurt to try, I stop giving it to my son because it made him severely constipated. So the doctor's told me to stop, and I would say try spacing his feedings out longer that will give his stomach time to digest the milk. And will help with gas! Formula is thick and takes longer to digest than breast milk! And try burping him better to help with the spit ups....

This is the feeding hours and instructions for help.

It's a growth spurt! Ezzie used to drink 8 oz a feeding! He slowed down now and is back to 5 oz every four hours and takes solids twice a day
