Hi I need some advise as a young mum.. so basically my baby boy has just turned 4 months but hes so so chunky I feel like I’m over feeding him he’s always active on hes play mats and in he’s night time bath also is doing really well with holding himself and he’s head up he’s on 8 oz every 3-4 hours he sleeps through the night 8 to 7 but he’s gaining wait so quick everyone I talk to says he looks like a 6 months old, but he’s such a happy baby so surely he’s happy on what he’s on 🤷‍♀️ Do I reduce hes milk or keep him as he is?

Keep him as he is, it sounds like he is thriving.

Yep, keep him as he is if he's happy. Have you also been going to get him weighed every month? They should be able to plot the weight in his red book and will let you know if there are any concerns.

Feed on demand is the guidance so it sounds like you are absolutely doing the right thing.
Are you doing paced feeding? If so then I wouldn't worry. Some babies just eat more and tend to me more chunky. One he is more mobile like crawling and walking and all you will see less baby rolls
Enjoy them and enjoy him 😊
