Am I over feeding ?

My LO 6 weeks has been having 120ml bottles every 2-3 ish hours up until a couple of days ago when he began to show signs of hunger after finishing his bottle . I upped his bottle to 150 but he still continues to search for more so I began to offer 180ml which he sometimes drinks or sometimes leaves about 20/30 ml , He does now go 3-4 hours between bottles though. I keep him sat up for about half an hour after each bottle and he’s fine but then I’ll put him down and he will be sick about an hour later . He’s never bothered when he’s sick and it’s never projectile but Im just worried if that is normal or if I’m overfeeding him ?

If it’s over an hour after feeding it could also be reflux! However I know my little boy isn’t very good at knowing when he’s full so we started pace feeding so he would get breaks in between feeding so it could register when he was full or not x

My 4 week old is having 120ml every 2-4 hours! More than 5 bottles a day though and I was wondering the same! She seems hungry so quickly again sometimes and takes it again x

Exactly the same here! Lite girl (6 weeks) sometimes has 160ml and polishes off the whole lot ! I always think we are over feeding her too 😅
