every 2 hours is pretty frequent. maybe she wants to be on a 4 hour feeding schedule?

Book I was reading recommends being generous with the bottle - every baby is different - if she will take the full 6 and not spit half of it up, then it's the right amount for her! But you definitely don't need to be feeding every two hours at that age. Maybe move it to every three hours and see how that goes, or the four might work for her. Also make sure she has taken her milk before you offer the oatmeal.

It's most likely just a phase. I would try stretching her feedings out to 3 or 4 hours. DS went from eating 4 ounces every 3 hours to 5 or 6 ounces every 4 or 5 hours right around that age. If she's hungry, she will eat, so don't worry too much.

DS is in a phase now where he just wants to play all the time, and at daycare he barely takes any formula at all. He eats a lot in the morning and a lot at night, but the other kids at daycare just distract him. He's also eating more solids at lunch, so I know that helps.
