right amount of breastmilk

my LO is bottle fed but with my breastmilk (exclusively pumping) and im just wondering, my baby is 3 weeks old and she wants to drink 3 to 4 ounces of milk every 2 hours. pag pinapa dede namin ng 2 ounces, the next hour gusto na naman nya. i heard and ask my pedia and she said that a 2 ounce bottle is enough every 2 hours. She also refuses to sleep without a bottle on her mouth... (tried pacifier and it DID NOT work) is this normal? may mga mommy ba dito na same ang experience? thanks in advance.

Exclusive pump din kami ngayon.. Ganyan din naiinom ng baby namin. Nag record ako ng intake nya (excel file haha) average nya is 27-28 oz per day. Sabi din ng pedia nya, for 1st month 2oz lang daw.. Pero nakaka 3oz sya kada feed. Pero pinapaburp ko naman sya in between feedings nya para hindi sya maglungad or maoverfeed. Kasi baka mamaya akala lang natin gutom sya pero nagoover feed na sya. Maganda pause muna sa feeding pag nakaka 1oz na sya then paburp.. Pag ok na, ibalik mo ulit if gusto pa talaga nya 😁
