myking,
Thank you for your encouragement. I have started to pump my milk so that I can monitor the volume of the milk and give extra formula if needed. However, these two nights, I face another problem she keeps on sleeping during daytime but at night, she wakes up most of the time. Throughtout the night, she takes milk once at about 1.5 to 2.5 oz. Then after an hour or 1 and a half, she requested again. Besides, she always cries and only stops when we hug her. Eventually, my husbnad and I did not sleep last night cause when we put her in the bed, she woke up and cried again. I feel really tired and exhausted. Last night, I had a mind that I regret to have a baby, then I feel so guilt when looking at her face....

It's very normal for your baby's situation and your feeling. Don't feel guilty. It's important to think positive, huh!
I suggest you to take more rest in the daytime while your baby sleeps so that you feel less exhausted to wake up in the night for feeding.
If you can tolerate, just let the baby cries for longer time instead of feeding her every 1 or 1-1/2 hour. Maybe you will find her drinking more milk and push back the next milk time.
Or you can feed her with warm water between meals. I did the same for my baby by satisfying her with warm water and pacifier and it worked.
Good luck!
