I was breastfeeding but now I don’t think I’m getting any. Baby has been really fussy and no wet diapers. I’m supplementing with formula. How much is recommended how often for newborn

She’s 2 days old
I put her on my breast and I also try to stimulate by pumping even though nothing comes out I drink plenty of water and I’m trying out lactation foods I just couldn’t bear her cries right after formula she went to sleep and she’s been really good since. I do want to breast feed once more comes in @bitchcraft,

She’s been doing 1-1.5 ounces. I’ve fed her 4 times so far @bitchcraft,

It’s only one diaper per day. Two days old is two diapers, 3 days old is 3 diapers up to 6 days. Keep putting baby to breast, she’s bringing your supply in. Expressing is no indication of what you’re producing, she’s far more efficient especially with colostrum. If you want to top up, only do an ounce max at that age and be sure to pace feed and then you need to pump or hand Express- even if you get nothing, it’s signaling your body to produce
