Need help on choosing a Formula for my baby

I breast feed but also supplement with formula. I was using the Similac for supplementation for breastfeeding moms and now I can't find it in stores or online. The soonest it can be delivered since it's on back order is next Friday and I only have enough for maybe 3 bottles. What other brands do you recommend or have used for your baby? And your experience?

Edit: I pump but only produce 2 ounces combined. I usually pump at work because it's hard for me to pump at home since she constantly wants to nurse. The formula is for the caregiver to give when I'm away. Just with my breastmilk alone isn't enough to feed her when I'm away. The pump I have right now is the medela freestyle. Any recommendations on any other brand?

Also have you tried pumping? I breastfeed and supplement with bottled breast milk. Buy a pump and see if it works. It’s a better and cheaper option then supplementing with formula. Idk why but a lot of breast feeding moms don’t pump and I don’t understand why.

Bobbie is what I got. My baby is 3.5 months and still exclusively breastfed but we got formula as a back up. This is the only brand I felt comfortable giving my baby. But like I said it’s only a back up and I haven’t used it yet
