Hi D.,
I went through the same thing with my daughter when she was around that age, although my daughter is breast fed. I thought I would be going back to work so we started giving her a bottle of expressed milk when she was 3 weeks old. Every time she took a bottle she would only drink 3 oz. It was like she magically knew once she had 3 oz and stopped. I think baby knows best when s/he has had enough and it's nothing to worry about as long as baby is gaining weight and growing correctly. I worried so much about her eating habits, but have learned to let go and let her call the shots since she was healthy and happy. I always added about an extra ounce to the bottles just in case she decided she was ready for more than 3 oz, and then once she started drinking the whole 4 oz I added an additional ounce.
