A. keep trying dear.. as it depends in demand and supply ..as much as u feed ,ur milk will increase..
New borns get tired soon..hence stop feeding .u need to wake her in every 2 hrs..and feed.. u are lucky that u have breast milk..if still u feel it's low,try to take dryfruits,ghee ,milk, and satavari. this help in increasing... in my case , breast milk doesn't come properly So I started mix feeding .. .my baby is 3 months old now.. and I give her Aptamil gold formula milk.. buti m satisfied with it..as my baby doesn't face any issue .. it has prebiotics which help her in easy digestion too.

A. exclusive breastfeeding has to be continued till completion of 6 months of age
and you have to drink plenty of water and at least 500 ml milk everyday as well as homemade food from cereals pulses vegetable milk and fruits daily e as well as you can go for shatavari supplement which will also help in increasing the breast milk formation (eg lactonic granules, galact granules etc )
also take multivitamins iron calcium and vitamin d along with folic acid. follow all this steps to increase breast milk formation.
very important to see that position and attachment while breastfeeding the child is proper.
if improper the child will continue to suck for long hrs without getting any milk
meet lactational counsellor who will guide regarding this.
see videos on you tube for breastfeeding dposition and attachment.
take plenty of water, home made diet, seasonal fruits and vegetables, milk for increasing breast milk for yourself.d
take 15 to 30 days weight and growth assessment by the doctor.
