<that baby gets all hot and sweaty and is exhausted after about 3 minutes
on
breast ->

Sounds as if the difficulty and tiredness may not be from working at the
breast to express the milk, but the reverse.

Try antigravity positions-sounds as if babe may be having difficulty
coping with what-for that baby-is a comparatively strong MER, and having
to struggle to coordinate breathing with sucking and swallowing.
