CONSTANTLY HUNGRY
My baby was born 20 July 2011 and weighed 3,9 kg. He is now 3 weeks and over 4 kg. I give him S26 Gold, 80ml every 2-3 hours but he still is hungry and cries now more often. Can I add rice cereal of change formule? I already give him 2x 20ml water as well

I do not suggest that you add solids to his diet, as he will be unable to digest the food. You can however, increase his formula to 160ml, every four hours.
