It depends. If you pump/breastfeed every 3 hours, you're increase the milk supply as your son/daguther demands more and more.

They put you on scheduled feedings in the hospital and once you get home everything goes to pot? Contact la leche league and talk to someone there. Generally, once the baby cries it signals the milk (never happened with us) but once the sucking started let down was definate...
I really dont understand the question because woman is not a machine...
The longer baby feeds the more milk comes in for next time?
You are only to feed for a certain amount of minutes per breast then switch to other breast. That is why you wear a safety pin on bra. How old are you?

My experience (I'm a man but my wife nursed all the kids) was that as the baby drank more milk the breast filled that much faster.
If the baby stops nursing the breast (body) soon stops producing as much milk until none is produced.

If your baby is eating every 2-3 hours, then that is what your body will produce. However, stress, lack of sleep, etc. can make you have a low milk supply. If your baby ever acts like he/she is not getting enough, try taking a nap (if possible). Also, taking Brewer's yeast helps a lot. (I used to be a lactation consultant).

It depends on your normal feeding schedule. If your baby is still young and nursing every 2 hours, you'll start feeling the "ache" in about 1 hour 45 minutes.

Your breast milk will aventually adjust itself to the rate that your baby is feeding

Depends on what you have trained your body to do. Supply on demand. How often your baby normally feeds. It changes with your baby. More hungary, more milk.

it depends on how often you nurse/pump.
if you do it every 2 hours--then it would be every 2 hours, you should have built up enough for the next feeding.
