Good morning sir /madam
I can definitely understand your concern.
For me to answer this it requires a set of questions to be asked for like for example for me to tell how much formula milk to be given I would want to know his/her weight. And more over try to breast feed baby regularly even in night too,as it tries to set your hormone and milk ejection reflex in a pattern. For you to educate the most common cause for lactational problems are associated with improper feeding techniques.
Certain galactogogues can be tried like garlic in home remedy for mother. More than it water intake would help a lots.

Hi. I can fully understand your worry.
Try to breast feed as much as possible.. is it a twin pair?
Drink 2 L of water per day.. the more you feed babies ..more milk you will get.. Formula is not the answer to babies hunger..
