Babies: 0 - 3 Months

LO often doesn't want to wait 2 hours btwn feeding. What to do? (FF)

Hi all.  This is my first post as a FTM to an almost 4 week old.  My LO is a very hungry girl.  The doc told us to feed her 2-3 ounces of formula every 2-3 hours.  When I told her that my daughter is still looking for food she said I could increase by a half ounce up to 6 if necessary, but I'm trying not to do that (though I have increased to 3 1/2 ounces at every feeding).  Most of the time my LO will make it to the 2 hour mark before crying for food, but sometimes she is screaming after an hour.  I've been trying to calm her and get to the 2 hour mark, but is that the right thing to do?  Anyone else have this problem?  How do you handle it?  Do you feed early?  Just wait it out?  TIA!
