Is my baby get enough milk?

Hi, i am a new mother. I'm struggling to give enough breast milk for my newborn daughter. She is 15 days. I pumped after direct feeding, and only get 1 oz. My surroundings said, i have less breast milk, need to top up for formula milk, but I really want to give my daughter only breast milk. Please help me! I became more negative day after day as they said i did not provide enough milk. My baby do gained weight around 0.2kg in 2 weeks time. She slept well, its just sometimes she's crying every hour.

If baby doesnt cry while bf or after bf, the baby is content or full. Otherwise, baby is still hungry. My experience, i do both. When she wants more milk but i cn no longer give her more, i gv her formula milk. Newborn need to be fed every 2 hours. I dnt think so much of wht milk i want her to have. Most important thing is she is getting enough. My girl cry less during her early months bcos she had enough milk. Even at nite, i dnt suffer sleepless nite. Only up, when its her feeding time. She sleep soundly evem thru my husbands snore. Still pump and bf, but if milk isnt enough, top up with FM. Theres no harm in doing so.
