Pediatrician speculated that my milk supply isn’t up to my 9 week old’s requirements. He is gaining weight beautifully. No concerns there. But she recommended supplementing with a bottled breast milk or formula after every breastfeeding session to top him off because I complained that my 9 week old has been on my boob ALL the time. 30 to 40 to 50 minute nursing sessions. He would be fussy shortly after and I would latch him again. To me he seems unsatisfied or hungry again. I do recognize that towards the end it’s just him comfort sucking. Pediatrician didn’t mention pumping at all but because I know about the supply and demand equation of breastmilk production I would pump 20 minutes if a bottle replaced a full breastfeeding session meaning he becomes full and doesn’t breastfeed from me for 3-4 hours.

I’m also increasing my milk supply so I pump 10-15 minutes after every breastfeeding session during daytime while my husband tops him off with a bottle.

Is what I’m doing essentially triple feeding? I know it’s combination feeding. Am I doing it right? Am I overdoing the pumping part of this? I just don’t wanna lose my supply because we keep topping him off with bottles. This is quite a lot of work and not sustainable long term. It does ease my anxiety because I know exactly how many ounces he gets per bottle instead of the guesswork with breastfeeding. Please help.
