Bermudawon’t grow upwards

My lawn was sodded with bermuda this past Dec in its dormant state. I live in southeastern North Carolina. I fertilized with the recommended 16-4-8 fertilizer at the end of March and April. The grass has greened, but doesn’t show much growth at all. Appears healthy. Should I give it a dose of a high nitrogen fertilizer now, e.g. Scotts Turfbuilder, or stick with the 16-4-8. Also, the sod has adhered well to the soil.
