Supplementing with formula?

Question

So I've been breastfeeding my 2 month old since birth and she's been drinking my stored breastmilk from bottles perfectly since 5 weeks old when I returned to work. 
Unfortunately my milk supply has changed and I can't pump enough anymore to store in the freezer. She eats two 6 ounce bags in a 5-6 hour period and I only have 4 bags left in the freezer.
That's only two days worth of milk for her and I'm getting scared because I can't pump anything in time for when I have no more bags. I have formula and I let her try it for the first time yesterday and she would suck on it for a few seconds and cry because she didn't like it. I have no choice but to give it to her for when I go to work.
I'm stressed about this whole feeding situation and can't pump anything and I'm running out of time. When I pump I try everything. Being calm, looking at her, being distracted. I'm drinking more water and pumping often. I still can't get enough to make a bag. I try and pump before work but I only have enough time to pump a bottles worth.

Will she drink the formula if she's hungry enough? What if she refuses to eat while I'm at work? 
Idk what to do :(

Answer

Try mixing the formula with the breast milk the first few times gradually decreasing the breast milk.

Answer

I can't tell from your post, but have you tried manual expression while you pump?

Answer

I'm confused. Do you pump at work? I pump at work to replace what my son eats that day. I never have a ton in the freezer. Usually just enough for one day and I replace it with what I pump that day at work

Answer

President Obama signed the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on March 30, 2010. (See the combined full text of Public Laws 111-148 and 111-152 here.)  Among many provisions, Section 4207 of the law amends the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) of 1938 (29 U.S. Code 207) to require an employer to provide reasonable break time for an employee to express breast milk for her nursing child for one year after the child's birth each time such employee has need to express milk. The employer is not required to compensate an employee receiving reasonable break time for any work time spent for such purpose. The employer must also provide a place, other than a bathroom, for the employee to express breast milk.  If these requirements impose undue hardship, an employer that employs fewer than 50 employees is not subject to these requirements. The federal requirements shall not preempt a state law that provides greater protections to employees.

I hope this helps. And I hope they decide to give you brakes long enough so you can pump.  If not get a lawyer.
