Your baby is fine. Let him eat as much as he wants.

That LC is crazy in a very dangerous way and needs to go. Your baby is not overeating at 4 weeks, I promise you, OP. As you said, he stops when he's full. My DD was just like this, a huge eater as an infant. She slowed down as a toddler which is very common.

Babies know what they need to eat. Breastmilk is the best thing to feed a baby. Its easily digested and made custom by your body for your baby. I would ditch the lactation consultant. She seems to have food issues.

OP, fire your LC.

That is dangerous advice.

OP here. We had match issues. I pump and we bottle feed him. He eats until he is full. There have been plenty of times where we filled the bottle to 4oz at he only ate 2-3oz. It takes him 20-30 minutes to eat.

Why are you bottle feeding if you’re giving your baby mostly
breastmilk? He will self regulate if you breastfeed.

Please listen to your pediatrician.
