I generally encourage moms who need to wean from a full supply to
alternately reduce pumping time and number of sessions. One day 1-2
fewer minutes of pumping, a day or two later when that is comfortable,
go a half hour or an hour longer between pumpings, and repeat. So yes, I
think your proposal of advising mom to pump more often for a shorter
period of time is helpful.
