general consensus has beeb ok for me to cont with demand feeding my 12 week old till...god knows when (2 years - i dont know am still completely baffled by what am supposed to do next)

question - i know when he is hungry by him crying - and boy does he cry!

is this the future for the months and years to come - wait for him to cry x number of times and feed him x number of times??????

give him time - he'll soon settle into some sort of routine and you'll know roughly how long it's going to be between feeds. It's frustrating at this age as they often don't "know" they're hungry until they're starving (DS3 is still like it at 4 1/2 months sometimes) so you'll offer a bottle....they'll not be interested, and then 5 minutes late scream the house down.
