How much to feed a newborn?

Hi!
My newborn is always hungry.
He's formula fed and seemed content with a normal amount in the first week but now (11days old) he's constantly rooting for food and fussing.
How much should I be feeding him?
People say you can't over feed newborns but the amount he's having it feels like it's possible!

Some info here but do contact the HV if you have any concerns.

If he’s draining a bottle, add another ounce!
