What was his birthweight??
If he is gaining weight and passing urine 7-8 times a day then your milk is sufficient for him. Never ever think of giving milk other then yours.
I suggest you to stop formula feeding that you are giving at present also.
Any if you want to give it then go for formula milk (better choice then cow milk), one spoon formula + 30 ml of water.
No risk of type one DM with cow milk.
