Reflux issues and weight loss

Question

Asked for Female, 29 Years

My son was born with 3.5 kg weight at 9weeks he was 6.2kg and he was taking 850ml of formula milk every day on average. But after that he started having reflux issues and he was spitting milk once a day , he also have colic issues, so I shifted to 700ml of formula milk per day thinking maybe I am overfeeding him , but after one week i checked his weight he has lost 150grams in a week. At 700ml feed per day also he was peeing 8-9 times and pooping alternate days. Right now at 10 weeks he weighs 6kg. Is the weight loss an issue of concern? Am I under feeding him at 700ml per day? Please help
