Till 6 months of age your baby needs exclusive breast feeding. If your milk secretion is less  you need to increase your fluid intake to about 3-4 litres a day. Also have nutritious food. If still not getting enough secretions please consult a doctor who can prescribe medicines for that.
Next Steps
check the weight of baby regularly. if baby is gaining weight adequately, there is nothing to worry about.
Health Tips
avoid animal milk  for babies till  at least 6 months of age, preferably 1 year. it increases risk of infection, stomach upset and so many other problems.
