17 week biting and tugging at the breast

This is mainly in the afternoon/early evening. It’s like he’s trying to get more out, but it’s not there. He’s quite a snacky feeder. 5 min feeds every hour or so. He gets very frustrated if the letdown isn’t immediate.
I’m trying to drink as much as I can to keep up my supply. Anything else I can try?

Have you tried expressing a little bit before feeding, to get things going? If it's evening, cluster feeding is common to 'put in orders' for tomorrow's milk - a baby feeding more will prompt the breast to produce more next day.
