Low milk supply can be of many reasons. I too faced this same situation. I used wantolact powder and lactare tablets to increase milk supply. main reason is diet and sleep timings. Yes u read right.If you don't get enough sleep you won't have sufficient milk supply. bcoz if we won't get enough sleep we get many other issues along with stress.
stress is very big reason for low milk supply.my gyenic told me this.if we don't get enough sleep,due yo stress cortisol hormone rises which reduces milk supply.
I know it's difficult but please try to get enough sleep and eat healthy. One more thing is it's completely good to give your baby formula feed.My baby also had formula feed.

Breastfeeding is always a very important factor for the baby and mother and  many times there are some problem faced by mother because of either wrong position while feeding  lack of proper diet stress related factors.
A proper is counselling is required which can be done by a lactational counsellor along with a proper diet with plenty of liquids some supplements may be helpful like shatavari .
Also try to avoid giving top milk in initial stage specially with bottle feeding which at may be the culprit for lactational failure most of the time .
