Mgt: If your baby has a stuffed nose, nasal saline and removing the mucus prior to feeding will help him comfortably feed. Every 3 hours /3 oz is one approximate schedule, and depending on how hungry he is, he may feed more or less. Burping to avoid spit ups mid way and after the feeding is advised.
