My newborn is drinking formula milk every 1-1.5hr. Should I be worried?

Hi mummies. My 3 week old baby keeps wanting milk every 1-1.5hr. Initially he drinks 60ml every 2-3hrs but we realised that he keeps wanting more milk every 1-1.5hr. So we decided to up his intake to 75ml. Even with the increase in formula milk, he still wants milk every 1.5hr. He still poops normally, no diarrhoea or vomiting. I am doing mix feeding, breast milk and formula. FYI, I’m using Dupro. Should I be worried? #firsttimemom #worried

My 3 week old is drinking 90-100ml every 2h and recently started feeling hungry in less than 2h intervals. PD said it is ok as long as he is not experiencing any discomfort nor vomiting but not to increase daily intake any further. I supposed it is also dependent on the weight of your baby.
