Crush garlic pods and tie it in a cloth and boil it with a glass of milk and 2 glasses of water, let it boil until it reduces to one glass and drink this twice a day after food. Also include methi seeds in your diet. Shatavari gulam, dashamoola jeerakarishtam etc can increase breast milk production. Baby is falling asleep because she must be tired from sucking and not getting enough milk. Also she must be getting used to bottle feed from formula feeding
