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

Raina · Answer

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.

Donna · Answer

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. )
