Their appetites change daily but my son always seemed so hungry too. He ate 4oz every 2 hours when he was born. It was crazy and he grew like a weed!!! I wouldn’t worry too much. This is perfectly normal and just keep feeding him everytime he wants to eat

@lavender13, My aunt just had her son recently. He’s 6 weeks old eating 6 ounces!!! He weighed 12lbs at his 1 month checkup!! They said he’s totally healthy, just a BIG boy! (His dad is 6’4)

4 weeks is when they usually go through a growth spurt and so they start eating more! Totally normal!

@bayou_donna, i feed him every 3hrs but it seems he’s ready to eat again after 2hrs if he doesn’t sleep well.

Sounds like you are feeding him well. Why do you think he always hungry. How often do you feed/nurse him?

( Keep in mind breastmilk is easily digestible, which in turn causes us to nurse often. )
