I would say that she's probably having a bit of a growth spurt, but without a bit more info it's hard to tell - you say you are feeding to a schedule? How often is she feeding?

One bottle of ebm shouldn't have much impact at this stage though. I would say just feed her as and when she wants it, remember your breasts are never empty, maybe knock expressing on the head for a week or so, and don't clock-watch if you have been.

Oh, and if it helps to remember that babies are funny little blighters and there's often no reason for them acting weird, that'll help too
