Can you pump to much?

I am only pumping and I am trying to build up my supply so I am making a little more than what my DD is intaking.

I have been trying to pump 2 oz every 2 hours but it seems that the more I pump the less I get out.

Am I pumping to much? How else can I build up my supply?

TIA

You can indeed pump too much in the beginning. You can overstimulate your supply and wind up engorged very quickly. I would stick to every 3/4hours in the beginning, and then get into a routine of pumping that suits you.

I agree 100% with this. I am pumping only and I pump every 3-4 hours.

You can pump too much and you are not letting your supply build enough.
