I don't do this, but I would suggest you alternate which side you give her every time. So if you feed her the left and pump the right, next time feed her the right and pump the left. I say this because the pump will never be able to get out as much as the baby can, so you'll want to switch sides every time I would think.

I offer the side I pumped. So, for her first feed this morning I fed her on the left and pumped the right, and for her next feed I'll offer the right.

@sslm: Yes, you want to offer the pumped side because the baby will always get more out then the pump can.
