Should my 12 week old be drinking more?

I give Roman 4oz every 3-4 hours which the ped. said is fine. At child care I noticed they started giving him more (they make the bottles there) like 5-6 oz every 3 hours. Needless to say I was very upset they didn't follow his usual schedule. They tell me he's starving blah blah blah, then they gave him water, because they said how they know I don't want him to have more food blah, blah, blah. I spoke to the Director about my concerns already.

My question is should he be drinking more? I didn't think so because on the weekends he's fine with the 4 oz. bang:

my daughter is 13 weeks and drinks between 4-5oz every 3 hours and we never give her water. i was told by my Pediatrician never to give water becuase it has no nutrients.

Sofia will be 11 weeks this friday and she has been drinking 5-6 oz consistently since she turned 8 weeks and that is every 3-4 hours. Of course with the exception of sleep times then it can stretch to 6-8 hrs at night.
