6 weeks 4oz..

My baby girl will be 6 weeks tomorrow and she has been wanting to eat a lot more so the doc told me to do 4oz every 3 hours, does this sound like too much? It's formula btw.

Ok I was worried! My daughter was 5lbs 12oz and is now up to 9lbs 9oz, so I was a little worried its seems like so much for her tiny body!
