Hungry baby

My baby is 5 weeks and is on 5oz of cow &gate and it just doesn’t seem to be enough for him he’s always hungry an hour after a full bottle. Is this normal is he just growing rapidly and wanting more? I don’t want to overdo it and it be to harsh on his stomach to the point he’s sick all the time but he some how finishes another half of a bottle afterwards. I give him my breast to if it’s not enough. There’s a hungry baby cow&gate ? Has anyone ever changed to that.

We did hungry baby with my little girl for a bit when she was this age but found she wouldn't eat again for a far to long a period but HV told me 5oz was good. I would contact a HV or midwife and ask their advice because obviously you dont want to over feed x

Research cluster feeding? I’m not sure how it works for bottle fed babies but it felt like my LO was on the boob every 45 minutes for the first 6 weeks.
