Pump more with him around you. Skin to skin and Gatorade
I was advised to not pump till after 8 weeks. You have enough milk trust, Iām 5 weeks and I thought the same but you just need baby to be on your breast to increase your supply, also the 2nd and 3rd week were really hard for me baby was constantly on me, shes 5 weeks now and goes longer streched in between feeds, just hang in there.

Stay hydrated and drink plenty of electrolytes! Eat and snack. That is normal amount for being 2 weeks out!
Let the baby nurse, it determines the milk supply that you need

Eat oatmeal every morning! Eat a well balanced diet every single day, lots of protein. And drink plenty of water.
Beer and raspberry tea are supposed to help. When I had my daughter I drank water like crazy and it helped a lot.
Beer, raspberry tea, pump more, drink tons of water.
Power pumping
If bubs latches then let bub do the work.
I would also reach out to an ibclc for support and help
If you can breast feed do. Pumping just isnāt as effective sadly.
Thereās a motherās milk tea in the coffee/ tea aisle at the grocery store . I forget the brand but it might be Celestial something
