breastfeeding

During breastfeeding even when the baby is latching how do we know if he is actually taking in milk or just sucking on the nipple. The first 2 days i breastfed my NB and despite him latching properly it appears he was dehydrated as he did not urine for more than 12 hours as such had to resort to formula milk

Unfortunately now he doesnt wana latch. He will latch and let go after some time. And he is still hungry after latching. As such i had to give him formula milk and I think he is now confused with the bottle teat and the nipple
