screaming

My son is 4 months....and hates to go to sleep...he will scream bloody murder to stay awake. The problem with this is now when he takes his bottle and gets sleepy he does it. And it makes feeding him difficult. He does good the first 2 or 3 oz. and then doesn't want any because he gets sleepy. Now he does it just about all the time....sometimes only will eat sitting straight up if he lays down it's to comfortable I guess. He use to take 6 oz every 3-4 hrs. (sometimes still does) Now instead of fighting him to eat I'm just letting him stop but I am trying to not feed him till the next feeding...if he gets real fussy I'll going to give water. Do you think this will stop the screaming and crying. I hate to do it, but been told this will help. Because he will relize that he is hungry when he does this....????
