I'm worried my baby isnt getting enough to eat? Hes breast fed but i occasionally give him formula maybe 2 oz a day because I'm not sure hes full. Are there any signs i should look out for? I'm afraid my milk supply is decreasing as he eats for 30 minutes falls asleep and gets a little fussy after about 20 minutes

He wants to cluster feed. Also breast milk doesn't have as many calories in it as formula does, so he will want to eat more often regardless.

If he's wetting enough diapers a day, he's getting enough.

His eat sounds normal for his age. They nurse 8-12 a day at his age. As long as your get 5-6 wet diapers a day don't worry. You can't nurse to often or to little milk is supply in demand your breast will know when to produce for him.

To piggy back on what @chelli said; you can , however, cause a lower supply by supplementing. Remember, your baby and body work together as a team. Your baby tells your body what it needs and your body jumps into action.
