Definitely drink a ton of water!! I have off days where I don't pump a lot and then some times I can pump 4oz at a time (my son is 4 weeks old today). Don't supplement with formula, just get those kiddos on your breasts and that will signal your body to produce more!! I have to pump because I have a preemie who is still too young to actually breastfeed (even though he's gotten some milk out just fine), and after he's on my chest the milk starts flowing really well. There also lots of resources online that could help give you ideas on what to eat that could help with supply. If you have Facebook try to join the BRAS breastfeeding resource and support page!
