BF Supplements

What are the supplements you've had the best success with? I have a 2 week old and I am having supply issues, very similar to issues I had with my first baby. I breastfeed every 3 hrs or so, then I supplement 2 oz per MD and lactation consultant, then I pump.  When I pump I maybe get an ounce, but that is right after feeding. I am currently taking MotherLove More Milk Plus, and I started it the day we got home from the hospital, but I'm not sure its doing much.

    I did see a lactation consultant, and we did the weighted feeding, baby got 15 ml total from me. And I did incorrectly state I get 1/2 oz pumping after feeding. It takes 4 pumping sessions for me to get a 2 oz breastmilk supplement for her.
