At 3 months old, increase time between feeds?

For my 3 month old son (who is mostly bottle fed now), should I start increasing the time between daytime feeds to 4 hours rather than 3 hours? And increasing the amount at each feed?

You might like to ask to have this moved to breast and bottle feeding - just click report on your own post and ask. There are lots of experts there who will be able to help. Fwiw I think the guidance is to feed when they're hungry rather than to a schedule like for breastfed babies - e.g. www.nhs.uk/conditions/pregnancy-and-baby/pages/bottle-feeding-advice.aspx but I breast feed so I don't know really and I'm sure someone who does will be able to help if you move the thread Smile.
