Anyone EPing?

Question

Morning ladies! Are any of you EPing? If so what’s your schedule like? 
My daughter is almost 15 weeks and currently eats 3oz every 2 hours throughout the day. Last feeding is @ 9:30pm until around 3-4am. I pump every two hours with 1 midnight pump and 1- 4am pump. 
She eats approximately 27oz a day & I pump around 50oz. I would really love to start going longer in between pumps but afraid to lose supply. 
If I change my schedule to every 3 hours will that change the amount I output each day? I would love it if she would go longer in between feedings but she doesn’t seem interested in bigger meals just yet. 
Any advice would be appreciated thanks!

Answer

I used to pump every 2-3 hours but will be going back to work next week and will have 4-5 hour stretches. I’ve started practicing pumping every 4-5 hours and have not noticed my supply lessening, just more uncomfortable.

Answer

Now that your milk is established (around 3/4 months) you can go longer between them. Just pump and extra 5 minutes

Answer

I pump only and work full time.
When I was home, up until 2 weeks ago, I pumped every 4 hours usually and got around 50oz a day.
Now... here’s about how it goes. I pump at 530am using the electric pump. Then again at 10am and 2pm using a manual pump at work. Around 6pm with electric pump. And last pump at 10pm with electric pump. I am still getting roughly 50oz a day and I’m not experiencing any issues or pain.
