Breastfeeding

Back to breast - advice needed

My DD is 6 weeks old and I have been mainly pumping for her the last 4 weeks due to cracked and bleeding nipples (large breasts and small mouth did not work well) and getting my supply up since that was a problem in the beginning too.

Now she is still wanting the breast so I give it to her, the latch is fine on my left side and I have the supply to feed her a full feeding from that side now. The right is harder to latch onto but we could work with a shield if needed...

 My question is how do I transition from her snacking on the breast mostly and then taking a couple of ounces from a bottle to fully feeding on the breast again while I am still pumping to make sure she gets enough? Any advice is appreciated!!
