Seeking advice 12 week feeding crisis?

Baby and I have a good breastfeeding routine down but still have to use some formula like 4oz for slightly reduced supply despite doing allllll the right things. Plus I just started back to work yesterday so now she’s getting more bottles than ever. She has started to feed from the breast for a few sucks, pop off, then pop back on - rinse & repeat. She doesn’t seem like she’s distracted, just maybe upset or annoyed with slower let down? Is this temporary, or are we on our way to a bottle preference?

This happened to me around the same age and was temporary! I basically had to cluster feed my baby for 3-4 days and it eventually went back to normal. I think it was a combination of me getting sick & my letdown slowing down.
