Does anyone else’s baby still wake up absolutely starving during the night?

He wakes up and within seconds he is rooting for a bottle and if I don’t go down and get it within a minute he starts screaming. During the day he barely shows any signs of being hungry I just feed him every 3-4 hours but at night time he is still waking every 3 hours for a bottle from around midnight. Sometimes his last feed is around 7:30 and he occasionally does a longer stretch after this until midnight but then it’s 3 hourly from then. He is 10 weeks old I thought he would be feeling less hungry at night time at this age tired 😴 during the day he doesn’t always finish his bottles either so I’m wondering if he is not eating enough during the day and then feeling more hungry at night time? Anyone have any tips to stop him wanting feeding 3 hourly? 😂🙏

It’s normal for them to want feeding that frequently at that age, my LO is the same. I think in the day she’s being entertained in other ways so goes a little longer at times but overnight it’s just sleep and feed. You could try feeding more frequently during the day if it really bothers you but you don’t want to over feed and it is best to feed on demand still at this age

My partner and I popped our baby on hungry baby formula overnight which seems to work better, maybe worth giving that a try 🤔 🤷‍♀️
