a baby will take what they need. my daughter at that age took very nearly the same. have you tried putting a little crushed rusk into the bottle. they now come sugar free and it really settled my daughter. it gives the milk a much nicer taste to. try it on his last bottle before bed, it will fill him up much mroe aswell. but only do it if you want to and you think you are both ready for it.

If this is all your baby wants, and s/he is not loosing weight, then i am sure s/he is getting enough. If you are really worrie,d you could try switching the type of milk you use... aptimal is good, as well as the progress range.

If you are still concerned, call the doctor, or NHS direct and talk to them.

all the best
