I delivered my baby 12 days back but from last 2 days my bm supply has started decreasing. I am feeding my baby in every 3 hours and if she gets hungry before that I am producing enough milk for her. Is there any solution or should I go for Formula milk

Hope your Thyroid test was normal during pregnancy,also if there is a family history of hypothyroidism ,get one test done.
Also,put the baby to breast,let the baby suck.DONT express and feed the baby.
