How much formula is your baby eating?

My little guy will be 7 weeks old on Friday.  He's been EFF for two weeks now due to a lack of weight gain and my super low milk production.  He'd been eating 4 oz every 3 hours up until he hit the 6 week mark.  Now he will eat the 4 oz, then eat another 2 oz an hour later, and tonight he drank 6 oz all at once and then had another 2 oz about an hour and a half later.  

 

I know that he must be having a growth spurt, but just wanted to see if any of you other moms were experiencing this as well.

My son eats anywhere from 3-6 oz every 3 or 4 hours.  If he eats 6oz he won't be hungry for another 4 hours.  My son is 2 months and weighs 14lbs if that means anything.  

 FWIW, he went through a growth spurt last week and we was ravenous!  Eating 5 oz every couple of hours but then he evened out.

7 weeks- 5 oz every 4-5 hours with one long stretch that goes about 76 hours with sleepin and no feedings.

Mine is 6 weeks & 12 lbs. He eats 4 oz every 3ish hours. He recently started taking 5 oz at a time every now & then, but not often.

Yup! LO is 7 weeks today and we've actually been going through this very same thing for the last month.
