Baby slept better on pumped milk?

Just home from a 2 night hospital stay with my 12 week old. Pumped and bottle fed the entire 36ish hours to measure input. He slept like a dream! No problem going down and slept for solid 4-5 hours.
Back to breast now we’re home and he won’t go down at night - crying for feed every 30min-1hour.
Is this a thing? I had better sleep in hospital!

could be that he had a bigger feed or could have been an environmental factor such as the temperature or mattress etc. Only way to know is to try pumped milk again and see if there’s a pattern!

I had similar and it didn’t continue at home (sorry). I came to the conclusion that they were sleeping by better because they were ill.
