They would normally drink every 3 to 4hrs. If he’s always hungry before that or cry for more milk after feed maybe it’s time to increase. My baby just turned 4 mths. Was stucked at 130ml for quite long till recently he cry for more milk aft every feed. So i made more milk n monitor his intake for few feeds to see how much is enough for him. At 3mths he was 6.3kg and from ard 3.5mths onwards he’s drinking 160ml. Hope this helps.
