Change in my LO eating/sleeping... normal?

So I know about the 4 month wakeful... but from what I've read that seems to deal with babies who may not be eating enough during the day because they're so distracted. My guy is regressing in his eating... he was going 3 - 3.5 hours between meals, now he's going 2 - 2.5 between... And on top of that he's back to waking up ever 2 - 3 hours during the night. If I didn't know better I'd think he's going through a growth spurt. But part of me is nervous that because I'm feeding him so frequently during the day, that I'm creating a bad habit he's carrying through the night. Prior to this he was giving us 5 - 6 hours for the first stretch, then 3 hours after that. So I'm wondering if anyone else is going through this or went through this? Do you think I should try and stretch out his feedings during the day? I've tried to soothe him back to sleep at night, but he's not having any of it til he gets fed.

Re: Change in my LO eating/sleeping... normal?
...mine is doing the same thing
We have been giving him the paci if he wakes up 2 hrs after we have fed him....he will usually go back to sleep. I also gave him a faster nipple so that he can finish his bottle quicker (because he was getting SO distracted during a feeding he would get bored half way thru) hope this helps!
