Hungry and sleepy...4 month growth spurt??

My 4mo is suddenly screaming after his bottle...he has 4 feeds of 9oz which up until now has suited him fine and he's sleeping a lot. Is this a growth spurt...I don't know much about them.

Also, in regards to his feeding, would anyone reccommend hungrier baby milk (I use cow and gate) or bigger bottles?

Sounds like it could be a growth spurt. I would try offering another ounce and see if that works.

It doesn't sound like an excessive amount of milk per day at all, so I would stay with the normal milk.

The guidelines on the packet are for 35oz a day at that point, some babies mine included need a bit more at times.
