hi dear,
I also went through the same phase but now my baby is completely on breastfeeding,so don't stop breastfeeding keep trying. Try feed in night time ie.. from 12 to 7 with 1 1/2 time interval because night feeds will increase ur milk supply , prolactin hormone is responsible for milk production, so this hormone will secret more milk actively in night time, so u try bf in nyt time, and u baby will adapt eventually you will be able to feed the baby on demand throughout the day. I tried this way ,it worked.. happy breastfeeding.. It's lifetime experience don't miss this and don't lose hope.

Ma’am I’ll tell you something very clearly about these lactation capsules and medicines I do have tried a lot of stuff myself but I never got sufficient breastfeed because of that and I had to push switch to formula feeding for my child by the end of the day so these things basically do not help so there is no point putting your head into it if your child is comfortable having formula feed then go ahead with it because that way it is easier for a child also to have a milk from a bottle rather than trying it hard latching onto your breast

Answer

if you have started formula then it will further reduce your supply..
the More frequently you feed. ..more is your milk production.
it totally depends upon suckling reflex of baby
,
breastmilk contain lots of antibodies that build baby immunity and DHA for genius brains
