Hungry baby
My little boy is almost 3 months old, drinking 6 ounces of milk, (Aldi milk) doesn’t finish the bottle and then goes back to it maybe half hour later. But then he’s starving again within 2 hours.
I don’t think the answer is to give him more as he doesn’t always go back to it. If anyone has the MAM bottles he tends to drink to the colour of the plastic connection at the bottom which I think is about 30/40ml.
Is hungrier baby milk worth buying? Every time I talk to my midwives about his feeding they don’t seem concerned coz he’s putting on the weight. I feel like I’m always feeding him.

Our boy is 9 months and still has a bottle every 2-3 hours (8oz). As well as 2 meals 😅 he's also a hungry boy.
He will generally finish the bottle, sometimes he will do part and go back, sometimes he'll just have part and not go back to it.
We just stuck to the normal milk though not the hungry baby one although did consider it when he was younger.
Just following his cues for when he's hungry.
Have you upped teat size to see if that helps? Might be that he’s getting ‘tired’ of drinking that first round x
