This is a growing baby. There is no clear specification for amount to feed for his weight range because there should not be any restriction on the amount you feed a growing baby!! Please feed this baby as much as he wants....he needs the calories to grow and develop his systems.....8 months old or older, you can start to worry about "feeding too much", but "feeding too much" should not even be a concern with a baby. Free feed so you dont end up with a baby in the throes of hypoglucemia. Trying to grow and develop and learn and do all the energy dependent activities that babies do, on 1/4 cup of food a day, seems to me not what is best for the baby, especially if the amount you are allowing, is enthusiastically eaten and he wants more!! Let that baby eat! Keep his "tank" fueled up and when he gets to be around 8 months old, you can start restricting his food intake if that is what you want to do.
