Yes: It's ok for an infant up to 3 month to be fed every 3 hours on the formula and every 2 hours on the breast milk. Your baby might experience a colic which is considered to be normal variant in most of the babies. Clockwise abdomen massage, warm towel, rocking, colic drops, whatever it takes, but it would eventually go away. Be sure your baby is gaining weight and have regular bowel or wet diapers.
