Default help! 99.8%tile baby advice

Hi There I'm new so sorry if I'm doing this wrong,
I'm getting a bit desperate now , I have a 99.8% weight (and head size) baby ( 5 months 10kg) so he has always had a hard time keeping up with smaller babies. was advised to wean early as ravenously hungry and not satisfied with milk feeds - was right decision as he feels a lot better now but no-one can give me advice on how much to feed him - I'm trying AK and Gina Ford combined! How much milk should I be giving him, he would take a full 210(210water+7scoops) every meal as well as food if I gave it him...is this too much?
current food plan is
7am 210 bottle
11am 210 bottle + 4 cubes vege puree
2/2.20 210 bottle
5.30/6pm 210 bottle + 4 cubes puree/baby rice
7.30pm 210 bottle
(wakes 3.30am - usually won't settle without ANOTHER milk feed)

Am so worried that he is having too much, I don't want to make him fat but the HV won't help me. all the books seem to say he should be having loads less milk than this but he seems genuinely hungry! HELP
