so I tried a 4oz bottle when he woke up. he didn't fall right back to sleep but I rocked him for about 5 mins, put him back into the crib and told him it's time to go back to sleep and then I went to bed and was going to do checks. He cried for 3 mins and then silence. He also 'slept in' till 7:45 when he usually wakes at 6. so it seems my baby still does need to eat at night. I am going to try giving him a little more formula throughout the day and little more solids and see if more calories during the day will help him sleep through the night without needing a night feeding. Thanks to those who offered advice! I appreciate it.
