Mom of a 2 yr 3 m old girl2 years ago

Q.

My second baby is 38 days old. I am giving both breastmilk and formula from 5 days of birth as suggested by the doctor for weight gain. Now weight gain seems to be normal. But still baby is expecting formula after every feed. Stops crying and sleeps only after giving 60ml formula after breastfeeding everytime. How can I stop formula and make breastfeeding exclusively?
