Hi dear
If u have done everything but still the supply is not their then there is nothing u can do about it do not beat urself for it.
Formulae feeding is very common these days and while it's artificial it is said to have also the essential nutrition ur baby needs.
Consult ur pediatrician to know which brands are good and then u can start feeding the child early by around 4 months itself so that he/she gets more natural food.
Don't worry it will be all right do not listen to the society who will taunt u for not having enough supply.
You are doing a good job
Take care

Since mother's milk is not available ..next alternative is only formula feed ..don't start any supplement on your own ..
Consult only an expert pediatrician for further guidance, only they can guide u what to take and what not to take ..
