growth spurt or just hungry?

[hopelesslypraying]

Idk if it's just Sophie but boy is she starting to want more formula more and more. She had her regular 4oz today but still wanted more! I made another oz and a half and she ate it all! I was shocked. Idk if it's a growth spurt or if she's just getting more hungry. But she eats more than my son did at 3 weeks lol I asked my nurse about starting cereal by chance and she said docs don't recommend starting them on it till their 4-5 months. I asked how come and she said the sooner you start them the greater their chances are for becoming diabetic. I was shocked. So I guess I'll wait.  :/ lol

I burp her after every ounce. She's one of those babies that when she's hungry she's trying to chug it down. So she gets pissed when you take the bottle out of her mouth for the first 3oz lol I wondered how many oz everyone's babies were consuming too

Might be a growth spurt. My lil man can sometimes eat 6oz of formula.

It could be that she's drinking to fast and her stomach isn't having time to tell her brain its full. Trying slower flow nipples may help.
