Switching to EP

Any advice or tips on switching to EP?

I BF DS in the morning and at night and he takes bottles at daycare. The past two weeks have been a battle to get him to latch on correctly, or BF at all, and when he does he kills my nipples. Based on all of this I think I should switch to exclusively pumping.

I currently pump one side in the morning when he eats, then twice at work.  I am concerned that my supply is going to tank once I make the switch.

Any tips or tricks? Do I need to start from scratch and pump every 2 or 3 hours? Or can I just keep pumping when I would normally feed him? I want to make sure that I still produce enough to feed him!
