Newborns take time to realize they r now in the outside world. Hence they like being close to the mother. That being said, u should try to pump and assess if ur feed REALLY adequate. Increase fluids in ur diet. If still not satisfied u can book an online session

Breast milk is very easily digestible and hence has a short transit time in baby's tummy. Giving false impressiond to mum that baby is not getting satisfied.
Formula milks are bit tough on tummy and do not get digested untill after few hours, hence giving a false impression to mum that baby gets satisfied by formula.
Breast milk supply depends on demand. More baby sucks, higher is milk production. However, if you continued to give your baby mixed feeds, eventually BF will dry up.
Continue exclusive BF please.
