Feeding and coming off latch

Hi, my 16 week old has been doing this more recently, where he feeds for a a minute or so, then comes off. I then put him back on and he repeats this several times.. any advice?!

Are you combo feeding?

He has one bottle at night

Is it fairly recently after you’ve pumped? My boy can tell if I’ve used my pump. I turned it down a bit and he’s less affected by it now.

Im giving him one formula feed .. theyre too clever!

The local lactation consultant suggested massaging the breast to encourage milk flow. My lo does this too but she also suggested it could be as they’re getting older they are more interested in surrounding so could be getting distracted. My lo is only 7 weeks old so think it’s more to do with supply, I notice she does it more when it’s a comfort feed rather than a big hunger feed
