Bottle feeding question

Hi Moms (and dads like me). I would like to ask about bottle feeding for my two (2) month old baby. First, I would like to give you a brief story. My wife doesn’t have that much breastmilk and medyo hirap talaga dumami. Meron but may issue kasi kami sa latching with baby. Minsan ok sya, minsan hindi. Kaya most of the time, naka-bottle feed sya. Now, my question is, may limit ba kayo (based on your experience), sa kung gaano kadami ang ibinibigay niyo for baby in a certain time? Nung nagstart kami, we give her 2oz. every 3hrs. Ngayong nasa 2nd month na sya, mas dumarami hinihingi nya. Nasa 3oz. na ang ibinibigay namin na minsan, nasa 2hrs and below lang ang pagitan. Ang nagiging concern ko is, minsan, ayaw nya pa din matulog. Gusto pa nya. Pwede ko pa ba siya bigyan as long as gusto niya? What are your experiences? Baka makatulong. Kasi nililimitahan ako ni misis sa pagtimpla e. Sometimes, I want to give baby another 2oz para masatisfy, kaso pinipigilan nya ako kasi nakaka-ilan na sya in just an hour. Any insights guys?

Ang alam ko po breastfeed on demand, pero s breastfeeding po un. Iba po kc kpag bottle fed. Ngmix fed din po ako nung 1 mo.si baby3oz p nga. Pero ang sleeping pattern nya ang affected. Overfed ko pla sya nun dhil mliit pa stomach nya. As for dami po ng milk ni mommy, try to be consistent po on pumping every 3-4hrs and drink more/hydrate.

Fyi. We’re on mixed feed kaso talagang more on formula. We’re doing everything we can, from massage to hand express to pump to supplements, konti pa din till now. Nandun na rin sa gusto na nya sumuko pero sabi ko huwag. Kasi meron at meron naman, konti/mahina lang talaga
