Advice

My baby is 8 weeks old. He’s been having 5oz of formula every 2/3 hours since 6 weeks meaning he has about 35oz in a 24 hour period. only a doctor said to me a couple of days ago that he was having too much and should only be having 3 oz every 3 hours!

Now I am stressing out so much because I feel horrible I’ve been overfeeding him and I’m trying to give him less milk but he’s crying for more. I’ve tried pace feeding but it doesn’t seem to be working and I’m trying my hardest to delay his feedings sometimes.

He was 8 pound 1 oz at birth and was 11 pound 13 at 6 weeks.

What do I do?☹️
