8 week old extremely fussy for bedtime feed

Hello wise ones,
Our lovely DC2 is 8 weeks old. Born v big at 9lb 12oz. Growing well and was over 13lb at 6 week check. We are following a vague routine of milk (he is ff) at 7, 10, 1, 4 and 7 then bed. We don't wake him to feed and he usually wakes for his night feed around 2am, settles well but is the grizzly from half 4am but settles with dummy (again and again!)
He usually takes around 150ml per feed but the 7pm feed before bed is a real struggle. He only took 60ml tonight before getting very agitated. DC1 had silent reflux and we think he has same so is having infaby gaviscon with feeds. We just find it strange that it just seems to be this final feed that he really struggles with? He is quite congested at night, sleeps on a wedge and is fed up right. Anyone any ideas? Just finding it very odd that he takes so little on this feed compared to others and it doesn't set him up well for night.

Any ideas? Just a phase/will grow out of it?

Thanks
