Phoenix12,
This may sound strange but are you sure that when your baby is crying it is because he is hungry? How many naps is your baby taking each day? When my baby was very young I bf him when he cried, and he only napped for a short time on my chest after feeds. I would feed for a long time then he would cry again maybe an hour later, when I would feed again. Sometimes he would be sick as he was so full from previous feed. It wasn't for some time that I realised he was tired and needed regular naps. He couldn't fall asleep on his own and needed to be rocked It may not be the case with you but if your baby isn't getting regular naps then try to incorporate them into his day. If he cries within two hours of the start of his last feed it might be from tiredness, try to get him to take a nap. Maybe try Baby Whisperer book which can help advise you how to get your baby into an Eating and Napping routine. It really helped me, I don't use it like a baby bible I just pick out the parts I think are helpful.
