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).

Some babies can take more then give more when they fry for milk. Mine has small capacity but she keeps wanting to suckle so I introduced pacifier because her reflux issues are bad.
