Default How often between feedings?

I know when she was born they said to feed her every 2-3 hrs. We always did on demand unless she started going around 4 hrs w/o eating (which she had only done once or twice) but now she doesn't seem to want to eat at all. Today I fed her around 2:30/3:00ish and took her to work w/me. She took a few ounces from a bottle while I was at work around 4:30/5:00 and when I called DH later that night to see how things were he said she had only eaten the rest of that bottle (so maybe 3 oz). This was at 9:00. I think she woke up and had an ounce or two more but it's just not like her. Usually she's wolfing down the milk and begging for more a few hrs later reguardless of if it's from me or from a bottle. She did the "not wanting to eat" thing the other night too for DH. At what age do they start to spread out their meals? And maybe this is a sign she's ready to start solids?? We're going to talk to her Dr. next Wednesday about solids. Any thoughts?
