So, I don't actually know how it will go, but I plan on trying lacti-cups during the day if I can. Otherwise, I have disposable pads (they were gifted to me, by a friend who overbought and didn't go through them all). Both were pretty cheap on amazon.

By out of control I mean that I think my body makes a lot of milk, too much milk, to be specific.
My daughter was born 4 weeks early and didn't learn to latch for 4 weeks so I pumped every 3 hours for the first month. I ended up donating 150 oz just from extra milk in those 4 weeks. I was "demanding" way more milk than my daughter was drinking. So once she was latching herself and I stopped pumping my supply was much higher than what she required, this (I'm 99% sure) led to the green poops and tummy issues.
Things I did to help get a bit normalized were block feeding, 6 hours per boob (ouch, but effective), and massaging my boob while she drank to sort of mix in the fat (a lactation consultant told me this is proven to help, not just making it up!) Doing that got us back to normal mustard yellow poops but I still choked her with a heavy letdown and soaked through shirts for a long time.
I just had my 2nd kid and he has only ever had boob and I haven't pumped an ounce (not a big fan based off last time!). Anyway, my supply still seems to be... very healthy. I wet through shirts constantly. I bought these cups to collect random milk spraying just so I could leave the house and not be a milk mess and one day I collected all the extra milk I was getting just from random let downs when I wasn't nursing and it was over a cup in a 10 hour period. So I still think my supply would be considered "over supply" but this time it doesn't seem to be having any ill effects on my son except that he seems bothered when I spray him and he has to gulp so much he is quite gassy from both ends. Poor guy.
It should be noted I'm very grateful that I'm able to produce milk. Low supply sounds heartbreaking and while over supply is annoying I certainly don't want to come across like I'm complaining or bragging.
