I wouldn’t be concerned! They go through so many growth spurts so their feedings will change. My 10 week old eats anywhere from 2 to 4 oz

My newborn went through the same thing last week. I was freaking out lol. But then talked to the doctor and she said it's totally normal. Babies know how much they can handle. And as long as they are peeing and pooping, they are doing great! Babies will be continue to grow and do weird things. But if they are happy, they are healthy!
You're doing great mama!

As long as they are happy, eating, and making wet diapers, there is no cause for concern!
