Okay need some advice::
My 3 week old baby is a pigglet!🐖. Every 4 hrs he was content on eating 4oz. Just this week he started crying like he was still hungry after feedings, instead of falling back a sleep or being content looking at the world around him..
So I asked the nurse on Thursday if I should add an oz to each feeding or should I wake him at 3 hrs instead of letting him sleep till 4hrs.
Her response::
Don't wake him, he'll wake to eat.
& unless he's crying don't give him that extra oz. Well at that time he wasn't crying like he is lately. & last few days there's times were he wakes at 3hrs, sometimes even 2 hrs after falling asleep waking up showing signs he's hungry with his hands, lips, & cry. Lol
So I tired giving him that extra 4oz when he wakes earlier or I've tried giving him the extra oz after his regular feeding time if he's still being fussy. ..
** From expiernce**
What do you think I should do at this point. Just stick to feeding him the extra oz if he's still fussy the hr after his 4oz. .. or should I just give him 5 oz right when he's ready to eat?!

I went thru the same thing I worried I was feeding him too much but I think limiting him wasn't the right thing to do. They will let us know when they're full! I think even formula fed babies have times of cluster feeding

@shellbell0391 So after eatting 4oz at 3ish, then slept from like 330 ish till 715. He basically took down a 6oz bottle. (( 4oz when he got up, then fussied for about 45 mins, crying & acting hungry. So I made a 2 oz bottle, gave him 1oz that he suckled down quick. Tried playing with him/ snuggling him, kept crying & acting hungry. So by 840 I gave him the remaining 1oz & now finally is content... just hanging out. Did throw up or slow down sucking on the bottle at all. ..
** That's not too much ?! Like he would have stopped or puked up if he was full?

You could try and feed him in closer intervals

He should be eating the majority of formula during the day

Feed him whenever he's hungry and if he wants more after 4oz give him more! My son always knows when he's done. They go thru lots of growth spurts early on. I've heard people say that a baby will eat as much as you give him but that's not true.

Id say dont wake him up because he will wake up when he is hungry lol but maybe try 4.5 oz and see if that makes a difference, all babies are different so he may just need 5 oz though! Try it one or two times and see if that helps the problem!

I think then I'm just gunna stay at 4 oz & if he's still fussing that he's hungry then make the 2 & what he takes is what he takes from it. Unless him or his body tell me otherwise. Guess it's just how old he is what gets me worried.
