LO drinks a lot

Hello my LO is 1 month and 1 week old, currently drinking 120 ml 3 hrly sometimes can go up to 4 hr when he asleep. But if he awake, 120 ml only last abt 2 hr plus. If we dont give, he’ll cry hysterically. And only sleep when we give until he full which can be up to 180ml. Any idea in controlling his milk intake? In between i’ll give breastmilk until i’ll feel pain. I went for vaccination yesterday and checked with nurse said not overweight. His weight currently is 4.29kg and height is 53 cm. Pls kindly advise. Thank you all.

Your baby is not overweight now. My baby is like yours when she was 1 month.. She can drink 120ml around every 2 hours... My PD never stop me though... Only say my baby will become sumo at this rate. 😅

Maybe he is just at the higher percentile. As long as his percentile is consistent I would think it’s normal. But it is best to check with pd during your visit.
