I would always pump after he would breast feed. Your not going to pump as much as you would breast feeding. It sounds like your on the right track drink lots of water and gatorade :)

the best way to regulate your milk supply is to feed at the breast for at least 6 weeks. pumping before increase risk of oversupply, clogged milk ducts, and a horrible infection called mantitis.

that's actually a good amount. anything over than that is considered an oversupply. babies saliva is what tells your body what to make. it also tells your body how to change your milk (if baby is dehydrated, etc) but staying hydrated is the easiest thing to help increase. Gatorade, smart water coconut water all have electrolytes which help you stay hydrated
