You will need to meet your pediatrician to determine the causes of poor weight gain, including infections and metabolic disorders. Consult with a Lactation consultant who will guide you about breastfeeding and methods to resume feeding. There is no other alternative. Restart breastfeeding and reduce Lactogen.
