For a 3 month old baby it's not wise to give anything other than Breast milk. You may also give formula whenever there is non availability of breast milk!
No external ingredients.
Take paediatrician's advise!

Healthy morning,
Plz connect with paediatrician
Don’t do unnecessary change without doctor suggestions.
You can
1. Try breastfeeding more often day and night
2. Offer at least both breast at each feed. Try ‘switch nursing’ , which is when you try to use each breast several times at each feed .
3. Try breast compression
4. Keeping baby close to you , skin to skin when possible as this usually helps your baby to feed more often
