How much breast milk should I feed my 9 day old baby?

Baby is fully on breast milk (I pump and bottle feed). In the 1st week I increased 5ml every day. Today I’m giving her 70ml per feed. Is this too much or alright? She tolerates it well currently and I plan to continue increasing 5ml everyday but I’m afraid her stomach is still too small. FYI baby girl’s weight is 2.5kg (last checked at 6 days old).

I fed my gal 60ml when she was 1mth old. I use to feed her every hr or 2 till I brought her to tcm and they told me although she can drink her milk but she's having indigestion and I've overfed her. which cause her to regurgitate milk. your baby may be able to stomach the milk but you may be overfeeding.
